It seemed as an even game when Poland encountered Great Britain, but the Poles had a brilliant top of 5th inning. While being 7-9 down, they scored 14 points and won 21-9.

“We started well, but we were quite nervous. Their pitcher made the difference today,” GB’s coach Josh Peat said after the game with disappointment, while Mateusz Macniak from team Poland was as happy as possible: “It was our first ever men’s competitive softball game. And we won it, which is an awesome result for us! At the moment, I’m probably the happiest man alive.”
