The match is of Great Britain vs Spain. On Day 2 of the World Baseball Classic Qualifier in Regensburg, Spain defeated Czechia 21-7, and in the nightcap, Great Britain defeated the hosts, Germany, 8-1. The winner of the match between the two champions on Tuesday night will advance to the group round of the March 2023 World Baseball Classic. After four innings, Spain led 9-2. In a marathon fifth inning, which saw 17 Spaniards come to the plate and 12 of them round the bases to score, Spain blew the game wide open. After defeating South Africa 5-4 on the first day of competition, the Spanish batters racked up 18 hits in the afternoon game, including four home runs. They were also helped by eight bases on balls in the easy victory.
All the runs that the British pitching staff would require came via a three-run home run by Justin Wylie in the first inning. The British pitchers combined for 12 strikeouts while allowing only four hits on their route to a 2-0 tournament start. Even after loading the bases with no outs to start the bottom of the ninth inning, the British pitchers did walk nine German batters, but the home team was unable to score more than one runner. Team GB’s Harry Ford, a prized prospect for the Seattle Mariners, added a home run and three RBI of his own while Wylie went 2-for-5.
