They didn't just win, they gave the Mexicans a bit of a touch up. 17-7. The 10 run mercy rule was brought in.
I think they play Cuba in the next game. Games have been shown on ESPN.

the set up for this is a bit different 4 teams in a group the two winners of the first game play each other (hence aus V cuba) for automatic promotion to finals the two losers play an elimination game (mexico V south africa(sa eliminated)) mexico won so they play aus who lost to cuba and the winner of this goes thru as second in the group thats how they play each other twice
