Honduras took advantage from a terrible start of the Italian pitcher and collected five walks, a double and three hits to score eight times in the first inning of the game.

The azzurri, with reliever Ludovico Coveri, found the way to stop the Americans’ offense for five innings , but could not find the way to completely fill the gap.

Team Italy scored twice in the fourth and one time in the sixth, seventh and ninth, but Honduras’ bats broke the spell in the seventh, with three more runs, and scored twice in the eighth and fixed the final score at 13-5.
