In today's WBC game, Mexico was in control from start to finish as they defeated the USA in their second game with 11-5. After losing to Columbia 5-4 on Saturday, it was important for the team to win today's match against USA.

Undeniably, Joey Meneses was the star of the show, putting on a brilliant display of hitting. At the start, he hit a two-run home run, giving Mexico an early lead to Mexico. On the other hand, USA's poor defensive display, cost them.
