Notes
Yucca sang the Japanese national anthem.
Cuba: Pedroso took the loss. He was apparently removed from the game with some pain in his right shoulder.
Japan: Imamura got the win in relief and Yamamguchi recorded the save. ... Japan pitchers retired the first fourteen batters in a row.
I’m waiting for the game. It would be an interesting match up. It’s Cuba’s power against Japan’s speed. I think Japan has a better chance to win it, but expect a close game.
Hola Felix what time is the game?
The line score appears to have the runs flip-flopped.
