Seoul (Korea). The XXV IBAF 18U Baseball World Championship continued under much improved weather conditions and allowed organizers to complete the first round with two games. Team USA defeated Australia behind a strong start of Ryan Olson 6-2 and Canada crushed Panama 10-1, scoring eight of the ten runs in the first four innings.
The morning results set the field for the second round, as Colombia and Canada reached the next phase as final teams. Korea, USA, Chinese Taipei and Japan already were qualified. Australia and Panama have to settle for the classification round.
With the standings for the first round finalized, the Technical Commission of the International Baseball Federation updated the schedule for the second round, which starts with two games on Wednesday afternoon.
