Here is some info I found on the two games tonight at 10:30 and 11:30



Netherlands and Canada play for pride at 10:30 a.m. (UTC/GMT +8) on Wukesong Baseball Field 2.
The Netherlands (1-4) and Canada (1-4) are unlikely to reach the semifinals. The team that wins this game must also win their next and have other results go their way if they are to finish anywhere near the top four.
Canada have lost four of their past five games by a one-run margin. Despite their sluggers' solid performance, Canada failed to convert runs when they were needed.
The Netherlands' pitching staff have the highest earned-run average (6.80) in the tournament. Their pitchers have surrendered a total of 36 runs while the team has scored just nine, putting the Netherlands at the bottom of the table after five games.
Canadian pitcher Chris Begg leads the tournament with 14 strikeouts.
At 11:30 a.m. on the Main Field the republic of Republic of Korea and Cuba will settle up bragging rights.
This showdown pits the top two undefeated teams.
Republic of Korea's (5-0) pitching staff have been particularly impressive. Ryu Hyun-jin is the earned-run average tournament leader, sharing his position with Japan's Naruse Yoshihisa. He has faced 35 batters in nine innings, allowing just five hits and no runs.
Cuba's (5-0) Alfredo Despaigne is the tournament's RBI leader with nine.
Cuban Frederich Cepeda has scored six runs, topping the table for most runs scored in the tournament.
Alexei Bell of Cuba shares the lead for the tournament's highest batting average (.500) with nine hits from 18 at-bats. Bell also leads the tournament's slugging averages with .944, having hit two doubles and three triples.
 
Korea +320 (3 Units)

I have a better shot at this today than yesterday with an undefeated team. Almost pulled off the upset yesterday. Hoping for Glory tonight. I just can't pass this up with what I read.

Hope this info helps anyone thinking about a side. Seems like this will be a battle of the juggernauts for who goes undefeated up to this point. GL :cheers:
 
TST you think Korea was looking ahead to this game when they squeaked past Taipei last night?....not often where you can get a 5-0 team at +310...may have to join you

Maybe after they scored in the 1st hopefully not using all their great pitchers late, Hence why Taipai came back in the end but their ranked 1-4 so I can understand why they didn't win. Last game after this for both these two teams are against 1-4 squads so gotta figure whoever wins here goes undefeated. Don't know what happens after that and how the Finals work but guess we'll see in days to come.
 
Wow, just read that these 2 teams played an exhibition earlier this month in Seoul. Korea won 15-3....
 
3-0.....not sure if we got the bats to come back TST judging by the previous scores in the tourney
