The game between Canada and Great Britain saw a total of 28 runs being scored – the highest number of runs in a single game in the history of the World Baseball Classic. Canada emerged victorious with a score of 16-12 against a spirited British side.
Canada’s win was propelled by a monumental performance from their slugger, Joey Votto, who hit two home runs and drove in six runs. Votto’s power-hitting was eventually too much for the British pitching staff to handle.
On the other hand, Great Britain’s batsmen also put on an impressive display, with outfielder Alex Bregman hitting two home runs of his own. However, it wasn’t enough to overcome the Canadian juggernaut.
The Mexico-USA game was another highly anticipated match, with both teams entering the game unbeaten so far. However, it was the Americans who emerged victorious with a score of 7-4.
The Mexicans struggled to get their offense going against an impressive American pitching staff, managing only four hits in the game. On the other hand, the Americans had a balanced offensive performance, with six different batters driving in runs.
The win for the USA sets up an exciting match against Canada, with the winner of that match likely to advance to the knockout stages of the tournament.
