Tyler O’Neill and Jacob Robson had four hits apiece to lead Canada to an 18-8 seven-inning victory over Great Britain on Sunday in their opening game of the World Baseball Classic.
It was the highest total points scored by Canada at the World Classic.
I would like to score 18 in every game we play,” Canada coach Ernie Whitt said after the game. This will make things a little easier. Britain, they kept fighting.
Quebec’s Edouard Julien and Owen Caissie homered for Canada.
Canada (1-0) will face the United States in their second Group C game on Monday night.
