The Philippine Blu Boys once again absorbed another setback in the Men’s Softball World Cup after bowing to Japan, 8-3, at the start of the placement round on Thursday in Auckland, New Zealand.
The Blu Boys were pounded by the big bat of Kazuya Toriyama, who blasted three home runs to lead Japan’s victory in their two nations’ first meeting since the final of the Asian Men’s Softball Championship several months ago.
