The two remaining undefeated teams from the United States are Great Lakes regional champion Bowling Green, Kentucky, and Mid-Atlantic representative Endwell, New York.
South Korea has shown powerful pitching and timely hitting in registering back-to-back wins over Caribbean representative Curacao and Canada. Panama pounded out a 10-2 decision over Mexico in its opening game before edging Australia 3-2 in its second appearance.

Bowling Green followed up its opening 11-1 win over Southwest representative San Antonio by beating Midwest champion Johnston, Iowa, 14-4 in seven innings. The opportunistic Kentuckians scored 11 runs in the top of the seventh to run away from their opponents in the first extra inning.
Endwell came into the tournament struggling offensively, but it has turned things around. Endwell opened the tournament with a 7-2 victory over New England representative Warwick, Rhode Island, and followed that up with a taut 3-1 victory over Southeast champion Goodlettsville, Tennessee.
Bowling Green and Endwell will play at Lamade Stadium, and the game will be televised by ESPN at 7:30 p.m. ET.
The winners of the two games will advance to their respective bracket championship games, which will be played Saturday.
The losers will still be alive since that will be their first loss in the double-elimination tournament. On the American side, the loser of the Bowling Green-Endwell game will play the winner of the game between Goodlettsville and Johnston. Both of those teams were victorious Tuesday.
Goodlettsville defeated West regional representative Chula Vista, California, by a 4-2 score, while Johnston got the best of Warwick in a 3-2 victory.
Zach McWilliams homered for Goodlettsville and did a solid job on the mound, as he gave up one earned run in 4.1 innings. Kaiden Dinh led the way for Johnston with two hits, including the walk-off game-winner in the bottom of the sixth inning.
