Pan American U18 Baseball Championship progress
Overview
The Pan American U18 Baseball Championship is underway at the IPL Academy in Guerra, Dominican Republic. Organized by WBSC Américas/Copabe and the Dominican Baseball Federation (Fedom), the tournament features 11 national teams competing for four qualifying spots for the 2027 U-18 Baseball World Cup in China.
Prior to the tournament, the Colombian Baseball Federation (FCB) confirmed its U18 team would not participate due to a lack of government support and financial constraints following a major earthquake on August 10. Meanwhile, Panama announced its 20-player roster under manager Rodrigo Merón.
In the preliminary stages, the United States finished Group A undefeated with a 3-0 record, including a 16-1 victory over the Dominican Republic. Although the Dominican Republic suffered that loss, they secured the second seed in Group A with a 2-1 record. In Group B, Nicaragua and Venezuela secured the top two spots, while Cuba was eliminated following a 5-0 loss to Nicaragua.
As the Super Round begins, Panama opened with a 6-2 victory over the Dominican Republic. Daniel Long drove in three runs with a triple, and pitcher Abel Rodríguez earned the win. The Dominican Republic continues in the Super Round despite the loss.
