The United States has won their fourth World Baseball Softball Confederation Under-18 World Cup title in a row after beating South Korea in the final in Thunder Bay.

The Americans eased to the gold medal after thrashing the Koreans 8-0 in the gold medal match at the Port Arthur Stadium.

Three runs in the third and four in the fourth handed them a 7-0 advantage. Another single in the fifth inflicted further misery on South Korea, who could not score a single point of their own as the US ran out comfortable winners.

“We knew that we had talented players, but we were not sure we could have a great team on the field, our greatest success has been creating a team spirit” US manager Andrew Stankiewicz noted.
