The second victory for the Cuban team, which competes in the Under-12 Baseball World Cup based in Aguascalientes, Mexico, beat Brazil on Tuesday with an outstanding serve and defense.

The two least effective weapons of Raul Rodriguez’s students in continental competition were key to signing 8-0, keeping them out of the top four in the standings.

The pitching tandem of winner Hanser Delis (4.1 INN, 1H, 6K and 1BB) and Yoenis Puertas (1.1, 1H, 1K) controlled the offense of the already eliminated South Americans, and their teammates did not make mistakes on the field.

Cuba is bound to win its two remaining games against world runner-up Venezuela and host country Mexico if it doesn’t want to say goodbye to its plans to travel to Chinese Taipei in July to host the World Cup.

Only the top four at the end of the preliminary stage guarantee a ticket to the global fair and a place in the playoffs for medals.
