SAN DIEGO (AP) " Carlos Correa, Carlos Beltran and Team Puerto Rico are heading up the freeway in fine shape. Already assured a spot in the World Baseball Classic semifinals, Puerto Rico beat Venezuela 13-2 Saturday for its sixth straight tournament win. Puerto Rico, runner-up to the Dominican Republic in the 2013 WBC, will play the Netherlands on Monday night at Dodger Stadium. A day earlier, Correa, Beltran and Yadier Molina helped Puerto Rico hold off the United States 6-5. "I feel super great," said Vargas, who was among the backup Puerto Rico players getting a chance on Saturday.
