Israelis Come Back to Beat Poland by a Two-Run Margin

The Israeli offense exploded early on, going through their entire lineup and scoring 4 runs. However, Poland scored six times in the bottom of the opening inning and got ahead of their opponents.

Poland lost the lead in the 4th inning, but tied the game again at 11 in the bottom of the 6th inning. Unfortunately for them, Israel added two runs, making it 13-11 in the end and since Poland couldn’t score again, the game was over.

“It’s a great relief. However, we must get ready for the game with the Czechs. That won’t be easy. If we play like this, they will execute us,” said Brian Klaff after the game, smiling.

Mateusz Macniak thought it was a really close game. “Every team here is a whole new opponent for us. We won our first game yesterday, now we lost one. All we can do is surprise everyone. We were close again. Unfortunately, our pitcher got injured and we couldn’t handle it in that final inning. It now looks he will be okay and ready for tomorrow,” he said.
