He led off the at bat with an infield-hit to second baseman Rafael Ynoa and then advanced to second base when Ynoa made a throwing error. Moments later, Profar moved to third base when next batter Yamaico Navarro flied out. An intentional walk for Tony Pena followed, but then Profar scored when Sean Halton grounded into a force out to give Licey a 2-1 lead.
