The anniversary tournament “Roy Hobbs World Series”
has started in Florida, USA, recently. This year competition is held for the 30th
time! As for Ukrainians they came to the championship for the second
time.
Ukrainian veterans have started the tournament
successfully and got their first victory on the American field! Ukrainians
defeated last year’s champion the “Chicago Colts” team with the score 15-9.
Ukrainian player Volodymyr Buialo commented this game:
“For me, a trip to the Roy Hobbs World
Series in 2017 was the first visit to the United States of which I had dreamed
since 1988, when I first got to know, and loved, baseball. And it’s impressive when
you can play as part of the national team of Ukraine. Last year we won one
game. This was the only victory in the history of the Ukrainian baseball team
on the American baseball field. I hope that we will win more games this year!”
