2024 WBSC Premier12 Super Round: Who plays Nov. 23? Times, TV and streaming
The two games scheduled will determine which teams feature in the Championship final, and which contest the Bronze medal game.
The 2024 WBSC Premier12 Super Round draws to a close on Saturday, November 23, with both games scheduled at Tokyo Dome, the first of which features Team USA, promising to offer plenty of drama.
2024 WBSC Premier12 Super Round permutations
First up is the contest between the United States and Venezuela, which actually takes place on Friday, November 22 if you are stateside (10:00 p.m. ET / 7:00 p.m. PT). The task that awaits the teams is simple: win and they stand a chance of qualifying for the Championship final.
The US have suffered two heavy defeats to Japan (1-9) and Chinese Taipei (2-8) so far but could finish in the top two in the Super Round with a win over Venezuela, which would see them leapfrog the South Americans on head-to-head.
In the second game, Japan will seal qualification with a third consecutive win over Chinese Taipei (5:00 a.m. ET / 2:00 a.m. PT).
What happens if there is a three-way tie in the 2024 WBSC Premier12 Super Round
The waters will be seriously muddied, however, if Venezuela and Chinese Taipei win to join Japan on two victories. If there is a three-way tie, the head to head Team’s Quality Balance (runs scored / innings played at bat) – (runs allowed / innings playing on defence) will be used to determine the top two.
The same will happen if Team USA, Venezuela and Chinese Taipei finish the group tied on one win.
