# Hawaii national baseball team

The Hawaii national baseball team was the national baseball team of the Territory of Hawaii. It represented the territory in international competitions before Hawaii was granted statehood in 1959; Hawaii now competes as part of the United States national team.
Hawaii competed in the third edition of the Amateur World Series in 1940, where it finished fifth.
Hawaii also participated in the 1940 East Asian Games, held in Tokyo as a substitute for the canceled 1940 Summer Olympics. The territory was represented by the Hawaii Asahis amateur team. It lost all three of its games to Japan (4–3), the Philippines (4–2), and Manchukuo (1–0).
Hawaii was represented by the Honolulu Red Sox at the 1955 and 1956 Global World Series, organized by the National Baseball Congress. However, at the 1957 installment of the tournament, the territory was represented by a selection of Hawaiian all-stars.
