		<description><![CDATA[Great Britain ended its campaign in the Baseball World Cup with a 6-1 loss to Venezuela in the conclusion of the second round on Sunday. GB kept the game tight against the country which finished third in this spring's MLB World Baseball Classic, conceding only two runs until the South Americans broke it open in the seventh inning with four more. The win was enough to edge Venezuela into a fourth-place finish in Group F and qualify it for the third round.]]></description>

As in the game between GB and South Korea on Monday (Sept 14) the final score didn't reflect how close the two sides were for much of the game. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Great Britain baseball team put in yet another battling performance in the Baseball World Cup, this time against the Netherlands, historically the dominant country in European baseball and tonight featuring a high number of professional ball players in its squad. Despite another strong defensive display, GB was undone by three early runs which left it chasing the game. Britain's hitters couldn't make an impact against starting pitcher Tom Stuifbergen's strong seven innings and the Netherlands added runs in the eighth inning to continue its 100% record in the second round in front of a large home crowd in Rotterdam.]]></description>

A four-run fourth inning saw Britain take a 4-2 lead over Puerto Rico but the Caribbean nation came back with the help of a fielding error and held on for a 5-4 victory as the second round of the Baseball World Cup continued in Holland.]]></description>
