Chinese Taipei struck first, scoring in the opening inning, but the Florida team, led by the impressive pitching of starter Jacob Bibaud and reliever Lathan Norton, kept their opponents at bay for the remainder of the game. With just three outs left and trailing 1-0, Florida’s first baseman DeMarcos Mieses delivered a clutch bloop single to left field, tying the game. The decisive moment came when Hunter Alexander laid down a perfectly executed bunt in the eighth inning, allowing Florida to secure the championship.
