If Mexico beats the US, we are out. Period. If the US beats Mexico and Korea beats Japan, we are in. Beyond that, it gets more complicated. We would have three teams that went 2-1 in round 2.

• The team that defeated the other tied team head-to-head in a given round shall be ranked higher in the pool standings for such round.
Result:
Korea over US
US over Japan
Japan over Korea
It's still a tie.

• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings for that round according to fewest runs allowed divided by the number of innings (including partial innings) played in defense in the games in that round between the teams tied.
After 2 games in this round, here are the runs allowed:
Korea: 4
Japan: 5
US: 10
Chances are, if Japan beats Korea, Japan and Korea advance, but it really depends on the score of that game. Say Japan beats Korea by a score of 7-6 and the US shuts Mexico out. Then the runs allowed are:
US: 10
Japan: 11
Korea: 11
US advances, Japan and Korea go on to the next tie breaker.

In a nutshell, if Japan beats Korea, they will have to score at least 7 runs against them for us to advance without looking at the next tie breaker. If they score 6, then we look at earned runs, and I don't know how many unearned runs have been allowed by either team.

• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings according to fewest earned runs allowed divided by the number of innings (including partial innings) played in defense in the games in that round between the teams tied.

• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings according to highest batting average in games in that round between the teams tied.

• Standings shall be determined by the drawing of lots, conducted by WBCI.

There is quite the possibility of a US Basketball 2004 situation that will happen (Thanks Dontrelle).
