THE Philippines took a 0-15 loss to Korea in the opening games of the 2017 Baseball Federation of Asia Under-15 Championship in Shizuoka, Japan. “Considering how far ahead Korea is from the Philippines in the development of baseball, our young boys showed great form on the field. A small community of Filipinos mostly parents cheered the team on every run scored by the boys,” wrote Loyzaga. “He was the shining star of the game as he also scored a run for the team on both occasions,” added Loyzaga. In other games, Chinese Taipei defeated Pakistan, 15-0, and Japan massacred Hong Kong, 26-0.
