Colombia is one of the nations that has grown substantially in baseball in recent years. This can be demonstrated with its recent performances in the Caribbean Series and with the number of players it has in the Major Leagues today.
However, it will also want to display that rise in this World Baseball Classic, where it has already made the first surprise by defeating a strong team like Mexico in their opening game to start with the right foot. It is worth noting that it is its second participation of its history in the tournament.
That game against Mexico was one of the most entertaining of the day, as it was decided in extra innings, where an error by Luis Urias decided the game. The ground ball he tried to catch from Gustavo Campero gave the 5-4 victory to the Colombian team in the legs of Reynaldo Rodriguez.
Considering its status as favorites, Colombia knows that this is a key game for reaching its aspirations to advance to the next round, especially since it have yet to face the United States and Canada, the two best teams in the group.
Starting pitcher: William Cuevas.
Betting on Great Britain
- WBC Record: 0-2
- Best Position: N/A
- Runline: [Por definir]
- Moneyline: [To be defined] [Por definir]
- Over/Under: To be defined [Por definir]
Although Great Britain’s first appearance in a World Baseball Classic has been quite tough so far, it knows very well that its objective here is to have fun and learn as much as it can. This is so because of the quality of the opponents it has to face and that it is a practically new team in this sport.
An honorable 2-6 loss to the United States in its debut was tarnished by a seventh inning KO against Canada yesterday afternoon, in a game where it still scored 8 runs, but allowed another 18.
Akeel Morris was the loser of that game against Canada, allowing 5 runs in just 0.2 innings of work, while 20-year-old Harry Ford was one of the team’s offensive standouts, hitting a three-run home run in the fourth inning.
Forgetting that defeat and having a better pitching performance will be vital for the British team if it wants to leave this World Classic with at least one win on its record.
Starting pitcher: Andre Scrubb.
JefeBet Prediction
Although it has had some good moments, Great Britain’s performance so far has been in line with what was expected of them, especially from the mound. Therefore, Colombia, who already hurt Mexico badly in its first game, should be able to have another productive day here.
Further darkening the picture for the British is William Cuevas, who is a pitcher with experience in the Major Leagues and in strong leagues such as South Korea’s KBO and the Mexican League. Therefore, the best option here is to expect another good showing from Colombia, dominating the Europeans and taking a convincing win.
Prediction: Colombia Spread (COL 8 – 3 GBR).
