The Blu Boys leaned on a three-run first inning to secure a convincing win in the knockout game of the page system semifinals.
With the win, the national batters try to retain the gold and erase the bitter memory of losing to Singapore 4-3 in Friday’s opening round of the page system semis.
Their match is set Sunday morning at 10 a.m.
Sunday will also see the Philippines shoot for gold in women’s softball and men’s baseball.
The Blu Girls take on Indonesia at 9 a.m. for the women’s softball gold while the national clouters try to win a third baseball crown against Thailand at 1 p.m.
Advantage is on the Blu Girls after ripping the Indonesians 11-1 in the eliminations while the PH baseball squad survived Thailand 3-2 in their previous meeting.
