Duksu High School Defeats Daegu Buk-gu SC 42-0 in Phoenix Flag High School Baseball

An unbelievable score of 42-0 has been recorded at a national high school baseball tournament.

Duksu High School defeated Daegu Buk-gu SC 42-0 in a five-inning mercy rule game in the first round of the 54th Phoenix Flag National High School Baseball Championship held at Goui Baseball Stadium in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, today (August 8).

Duksu High School scored 5 runs in the first inning and 3 in the second, followed by 10 more in the third to take an 18-0 lead.

They then erupted for a massive 21 runs in the fourth inning and added 3 more in the fifth.

Duksu High School recorded 34 team hits and drew 12 walks.

Duksu High School is a powerhouse in high school baseball, having won the Shinsegae E-Mart Bae National High School Baseball Championship last April and the President's Cup National High School Baseball Championship last month.

On the other hand, Daegu Buk-gu SC is a sports club team founded in 2024, and most of its players are not so-called elite athletes who specialize in baseball.

Daegu Buk-gu SC has lost all 15 of the games it has played this year by mercy rule.

The Phoenix Flag tournament is a competition that all high school teams across the country can enter without a separate preliminary round, which often leads to significant gaps in strength among participating teams.
