Baseball Australia are proud to announce the following 24 men that will represent Australia at the U23 World Cup in Mexico at the end of October.
After a long selection process, Head Coach Tony Harris settled on his squad that will take on the best U23 baseball players in the world, as Australia take on Austria in their opening pool game on the 28th of October in Polideportivo.
"The selection process took longer than anticipated, but at the end of the day I'm really pleased with the quality of the squad," Harris said.
"We're excited to see how this team performs on the world stage, it's a great opportunity for some of the younger members of the team to see how they match up against the best of the best."
Following his selection in the Team Australia side that ventured to Honkbalweek earlier this year in the Netherlands, Sydney Blue Sox star Jacob Younis gets another chance to put on the green and gold in Mexico.
Three names to look out for on this trip are a trio of Australians in the US college system, Josh Hendrickson, Jye Deeble and Mitch Neunborn. Deeble, a member of Central Arizona College, will be making the trip with his father, Team Australia manager Jon Deeble. Hendrickson is a member of Ranger College, Texas, while Neunborn represents North Iowa Area Community College.
Head Coach Tony Harris is keen to see the team make an impression in Mexico.
"It's a great chance for these guys to get some international exposure," Harris said.
"It's been a massive effort from Glenn Williams and everyone else working behind the scenes to get this squad together, I'm very excited about getting over there and watching these guys compete."
