South Korea vs Japan – Baseball Team Preview
Japan has been a dominant force so far in the ongoing Tokyo Olympics. In Group A, they beat the Dominican Republic and Mexico without breaking a sweat. However, the USA gave them a run for their money in the Round 2 match on Monday 2 August.
Yanagita Yuki led the game into the extra inning to keep Japan in the game. In the 10th inning, Takuya Kai managed to win a single and led his team to the finish line. In the top of the fifth inning, the USA took a 6-3 lead, but Japan did not lose their cool.
South Korea, on the other hand, huffed and puffed for a 6-5 victory over Israel in their opener. However, they couldn’t get past the line against the United States. After finishing second in Pool B, the Asian team edged the Dominican Republic by a 4-3 margin.
His Round 2 match against Israel on Monday, August 2, would have boosted his morale. South Korea won the game 11-1, not allowing the Olympic rookies to make a comeback. But to beat Japan in the semifinals, the team needs to put up the hard yards.
