What are the standings in Group A of the 2024 Premier12? Where are Mexico and the USA? Who will go through to the Super Round?
Group A of the 2024 WBSC Premier12 is proving to be a tightly contested battle as the tournament unfolds in Mexico. After Day 3 of the group stage, both Venezuela and Panama have jumped to the top of the standings with a record of 2-1. Venezuela earned their position by defeating the United States 5-3 in a Game marked by a stellar outing from pitcher Mario Sanchez, who racked up ten strikeouts over six innings. Meanwhile, Panama edged past Mexico 3-2, coming back from a 2-0 deficit thanks to a timely sacrifice fly from Carlos Quiroz, which proved to be the Game-winning moment.
For the United States and Mexico, the road to advancing has become more challenging. Both teams sit at the bottom of the standings with a record of 1-2. The USA team, led by a mix of prospects and veterans, initially showed promise but has struggled to maintain consistent form. Their defeat to Venezuela leaves them in a tight spot as they face Panama next in a must-win matchup to keep their hopes alive. Mexico, on the other hand, has faced heartbreak with close losses, making their path to the Super Round difficult but not impossible.
With the final Group A Games looming, the comPetition for the top two spots that lead to the Super Round in Tokyo is intense. Currently, Panama and Venezuela are in the driver’s seat, but the Netherlands and Puerto Rico - each holding a 1-1 record - remain in contention as well. The pressure is mounting for every team, and the upcoming Games will determine who advances and who bows out. For now, all eyes are on the high-stakes clash between the U.S. and Panama, a pivotal matchup that could redefine the group’s landscape.
