The Korean women’s baseball team ended the World Cup group stage with a 5-game losing streak.
The women’s baseball team, led by head coach Yang Sang-moon, was defeated by Canada 0-10 in the 5th cold game in the 2024 WBSC Women’s Baseball World Cup preliminary Group A round held at Port Arthur Stadium in Thunder Bay, Canada on the 14th (Korean time). This tournament will be played in 7 innings, and if there is a difference of 10 points or more after the 5th inning, a cold game is declared.
Starting pitcher Kim Bo-mi blocked the first inning with a scoreless run, but could not hold out afterwards. Following Kim Bo-mi’s 4 runs (3 earned runs) in 2⅓ innings, Kwak Min-jeong scored 4 runs in 1⅓ innings, and Lee Ji-sook scored 2 runs in ⅓ innings, respectively, and the other lineup failed to pick up a single point.먹튀검증
After one out in the bottom of the second inning, which was 0-0, the national team gave up two runs with a hit ball and a home run, and the national team took the lead and sent the leading batter out at the bottom of the third due to a defensive error. Then, he allowed an additional run through a walk and a timely hit.
The national team, which was trailing 0-4 by giving up 2 points in the 3rd inning, contributed a whopping 5 points in the 4th inning. After a walk and a hit, he got 2 outs well, but after that, he gave up timely hits and 4 balls in a row, so he couldn’t catch the last out. As he allowed consecutive hits, the number of runs quickly increased.
The national team, trailing by 0-9, suffered a 10-point cold game defeat by allowing a timely hit to end the game following a double by the lead batter at the bottom of the fifth inning.
With this, the women’s baseball team has completed all five group stage matches held in Canada. The original goal was at least two wins, but it was regrettable that Hong Kong lost by one point in the first game. Japan holds the No. 1 spot in the women’s baseball world rankings, while the United States, Canada, and Australia are strong players. The Korean women’s baseball team is practically a hobby because there is no unemployed team and no proper training environment. However, as coach Yang Sang-moon and professional coaches began to guide in earnest, his skills improved a lot, and he could see potential, such as winning a bronze medal at the last Asian Cup held in Hong Kong.
However, the wall on the world stage was still high. The Korean national team, which recorded a total of five losses, failed to secure a ticket to the finals of the Women’s Baseball World Cup, which will be held in Canada next year. In Group A, the United States took first place with a 5-0 win, Canada took second place with 4 wins and 1 loss, and Mexico made a surprise turnaround by overtaking Australia and rising to 3rd place with 3 wins and 2 losses.
