The Argentine U18 baseball team played a huge game this afternoon against Brazil, in one of the semifinals of the South American category that takes place at the Popeye diamond, in the province of Salta, but was unable to advance to the final. since they fell by 7 runs to 6.
The “Gauchitos” found themselves against a powerful Brazilian offense, which scored two runs in the first inning and maintained their advantage until the fourth inning, when Argentina partially turned the score around and took a 3-2 lead, the organizers detailed.
However, in the bottom part of that same inning, the Brazilians scored three runs and were ahead 5-3, while in the fifth inning, after a home run by Felipe Villasanti, the albiceleste got within one score, but another Brazil scored again and was up 6 to 4.
In the sixth inning, the team scored a new score and was three outs away from victory.
Then, the light blue and white battled, reaching home plate twice and remaining with the tying run at third base when the green and yellow team managed to score the third and final out.
Tomorrow, the teams from Brazil and Venezuela – which earlier today defeated Peru 11 to 1 – will play the South American final at 3 p.m., while at 10 a.m., Argentina and Peru will compete for third place.
