As Baseball World Cup tickets for Sundbyberg, Sweden went on sale today at www.ticnet.se, we also gathered some information about the six preliminary round games being played at the venues in Prague and Ostrava, Czech Republic. The sale will start during the next two weeks at www.ticketpro.cz. Ticket prices range between 50 and 490 Czech Koruna (€2-19).
The article on the Czech website www.baseball.cz also talks about two planned exhibition games in front of the Baseball World Cup in Ostrava. Apparently Team USA, the Dominican Republic, Australia, Mexico and Taiwan are in talks to play.
