1938 Amateur World Series

(Redirected from 1938 Baseball World Cup)
The 1938 Amateur World Series was the first edition of what would become the Baseball World Cup. While future major leaguers were appearing for Cuba, Panama and the USA within a couple years, the 1938 event was hardly of the same level. 
United Kingdom beat the 
United States 4 games to 1 from August 13 through August 18 in London. Both teams, though, were American soldiers stationed in Europe, hardly representative of either country.
