GameTime Classic | Episode 70: Brazil, Venezuela nail-biter at WBSC Softball Americas Olympic Qualifier
02/06/2020
The South American classic was played on Day 3 of the event, with both teams trying to keep their Olympic dreams alive.

On August 27 2019 the Women’s National Teams of Brazil and Venezuela clashed on Day 3 of the WBSC Americas Softball Olympic Qualifier at Softball City in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. The South American teams engaged in a low-scoring game in Group B, with a spot in the Super Round on the line.

The two teams previously met in the final of the 2018 South American Softball Championship in Aruba, when Venezuela topped Brazil, 5-3, in extra innings to clinch the regional title.

Before the game in Surrey, Brazil and Venezuela were tied on top of the Group B standings with a pair of wins and no losses. Brazilian starter Camila Silva faced off against Venezuelan lefty Desiree Ybarra.

The South American classic will be available for free at www.youtube.com/wbsc at 9 pm Eastern US Standard Time* on Tuesday, 2 June (3 am Central European Time* and 10 pm Brazil time) and Tuesday at 9 am US Eastern Standard Time* (3:00 pm Central European Time* and 10 am Brazil Time) at www.facebook.com/wbsc.

*Observing daylight saving time.

Tomorrow’s GameTime Classics will feature a thriller between Australia and Japan in the Opening Round of the 2017 WBSC U-18 Baseball World Cup.
