Argentina prevailed over the USA, 3-1 in the resumption of the rain delayed game from opening night. Argentina led 2-0 after 3 innings on Sunday. Manuel Godoy added a cushion with a solo home run to centerfield in the top of the seventh inning, while USA’s Erick Ochoa drove in a run in the bottom of the seventh with two outs for the lone USA run. Starter Brad Kilpatrick took the loss for the USA, having pitched on opening night, while Joel Cooley tossed four innings in today’s contest.
Argentina’s Hueml Mata went the distance for the win, surrendering 1 run on 3 hits, while striking out 13 and walking one.
Argentina took second place in Pool B, with a 3 and 1 record, with the one loss to Canada, which won Pool B with a 4-0 record. USA finishes with a 2-2 record, good for third place in Pool B. Both of the USA’s losses came on Wednesday, though both close contests to the Bronze (Canada) and Gold (Argentina) medalists from the 2019 WBSC World Cup in Prague.
