Ildemaro Vargas has increased his level since the start of the postseason, to the point that he has the third best average in the Round Robin among qualified hitters (.442) and has hit home runs all over the place for the cause of the Lara Cardinals.

However, after tripling in six at-bats on Saturday against the Águilas del Zulia in Barquisimeto, he reached 173 hits in his postseason career. This places him third all-time among the Crepusculars, only surpassed by Luis Sojo (252) and Robert Pérez (315).
That said, it's understandable why 'Caripito' is so beloved by the fans of the twilight season and already has his place in the history of the franchise. He even leads his teammates in hits (19), OBP (.529), OPS (1.087), wOBA (.503) and runs created (27.0).
It should also be added that the formidable imprint he has had with the bat has been backed by an excellent ratio of four walks for every strikeout, that, for leading his team in walk rate (15.7%) and guillotines (3.9%).
