Mexico arrived with a 0-2 win-loss record, with a pair of 1-run losses against Japan (2-1) and the host Czech Republic (3-2). On the other hand, then world No. 1 ranked and defending world champions New Zealand had shut out the Czechs (9-0) and Cuba (2-0), and jumped the field with a perfect record.
