Olympic 2020: Australia’s best baseballers fighting for the national title

Olympic Baseball returning to the Olympic programmer for the first time in 12 years at Tokyo 2020 the Australian Baseball League (ABL) Championship Series is providing the ideal field to showcase the nation’s top talent.

The Brisbane Bandits have taken a 1-0 lead in the best of three games in the series after defeating hosts Perth Heat 3-2 on Thursday.

Australian baseball legend and current manager for both the Brisbane Bandits and the Australian national team David Nilsson knows what it takes to win at the highest level.

“We’re in a pretty good position any time you earn your way into a championship final you’re playing some pretty good baseball With the Bandits chasing a record fourth consecutive ABL title there’s no extra pressure.

Externally people may view it as more pressure on the team but there’s just comfort because we’ve been here before.”

Nilsson who won Olympic silver at Athens 2004 is excited at the opportunity baseball’s reintroduction to the Olympic programmer for Tokyo will have for the sport in Australia.
