TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – One week after the Taiwanese Bronco league baseball team defeated Mexico 15-0 to win the 2018 world championship for the 12 and under team, the 13 and 14 year olds have followed suit becoming the 2018 world champions in the Pony League.
Team Taiwan defeated the team from Long Beach, California 3-1 to achieve their ninth title as World Pony League Champions, and their third championship title over the past four years.
