Bulacan: The Bulacan Dreamers softball team captured Asia-Pacific Region's first bronze at the 2026 Senior League Softball World Series in Delaware, USA on Sunday (PH time). The Dreamers capped their run with a 5-1 victory over Europe-Africa in the bronze medal game.
According to Philippines News Agency, the Bulacan Dreamers built their podium run with three straight wins in Pool A, beating East Region (10-0), Latin America (8-3), and Southwest (18-1). Despite a late group-stage loss to host Delaware D3 (1-12), Bulacan bounced back in the knockouts with a 10-0 shutout of Canada. They fell short of the final in a 1-0 semifinal heartbreak against eventual champion Central Region, before rebounding to seal third place.
