### Results

During the group stages of the Wii Baseball World Cup 2021, the Stoke on Trent steamers were seeded against 5 other teams. In their first game, they played against Brown Town, ending up winners with a 12-2 victory.

That same day, the Stoke-on-Trent Steamers engaged in a practice round against the Salmon Fishers, ending up with a tie of 4-4. Having figured out Salmon Fishers Captain James' dipping pitches, The Stoke-on-Trent Steamers were able to claim a 6-1 victory the next day, making it 2 wins from 2 for a very strong start to the competition.

This record would not hold however, as the daunting prospect of Lucia's Baseball Team awaited them. Lucia had long been a bitter rival of the Stoke-on-Trent Steamers, proving a thorn in their side all too often thanks to her tendency towards verbal abuse and insults. This time was no different, and although the game was agonisingly close, the Steamers buckled under the pressure when it mattered most. The game ended 3-4 in Lucia's Baseball Team's favour.

Worse still, Captain Engine Room was hospitalized after the game, having reaggravated a recurring injury to his confidence. This meant that the team's Tactician Mind Brain, had to step in to fill his role for the teams next game against the Pittsburgh Purples. The Steamers rallied behind their new leader though, and followed Mind Brains ingenious new game plan to win the game in scintillating fashion. A 5-0 walloping.

With Engine Room back for the next game against Kathrin's Krew, things went from good to even better. This game ended 13-7 in the Steamers Favour and it felt quite fitting that such a magnificent performance would send them through to the knockouts as joint group leaders (12 points equal with Lucia's Baseball Team).
