/ CONFEDERATION CUP / DAY 2 RECAP / JUNE 16 / 2026
Day 2 was a clean model day, but not a quiet one. Hroši beat Rouen almost inside the exact forecast shape, then Brasschaat turned a projected favorite lane into a 19-8 run-rule statement that pushed Savigny to the edge of the tournament.

/ Executive read
Day 2 was clean directionally: Hroši and Brasschaat both landed. The separation is that Hroši won inside the forecast shape, while Brasschaat blew past the projected run band.
Day 2 was a clean direction day for the model: 2-for-2 today, 3-for-4 for the event.
The projected Day 2 board was 23.9 runs. The official games produced 36, almost entirely because Brasschaat scored 12 in the fifth.
Rouen have now lost two games by one run, but the table does not price moral proximity.
Savigny are 0-2, -15, and the combined French title lane has collapsed to 3.7%.
/ Forecast check
The Hroši result was almost a direct model confirmation. Brasschaat was a favorite hit with a much louder magnitude than the forecast priced.
Almost exactly the planned Hroši control game: one-run final, suppressed total, favorite held.
Correct favorite, wrong magnitude: Brasschaat's 12-run fifth detonated the run environment.
/ Live reset
Brasschaat have the strongest actual-results profile at 2-0 and +12. Hroši still hold the highest title equity because the remaining schedule and underlying team-strength layer are kinder.

/ Table mechanics
Run differential is no longer a footnote. Brasschaat sit at +12, Savigny are at -15, and the tied-final-slot layer still appears in nearly half of simulations.
| Team | Rec. | RF | RA | RD | TQB |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-0 | 24 | 12 | +12 | 0.850 | |
| 1-0 | 7 | 3 | +4 | 0.474 | |
| 1-0 | 5 | 4 | +1 | 0.181 | |
| 0-2 | 8 | 10 | -2 | -0.144 | |
| 0-2 | 11 | 26 | -15 | -1.085 |
In a five-team round robin, second place can land in a multi-team tie quickly. The post-Day 2 simulation still reaches a tied final slot in 45.9% of paths, so Savigny's -15 and Rouen's -2 are future liabilities, not cosmetic.
/ Player impact
This is Day 2-only PFI, normalized against the same BD1/CRO/CEX/FD1 2026 game-log population. It is the event performance layer, not a scouting grade.

/ Pitch-depth tax
Two losses each would be damaging on their own. Pair them with 276 total pitches per club, and Wednesday becomes a recovery problem as much as a standings problem.
276
pitches
Two one-run losses with 276 pitches spent; Ito's 139-pitch complete game is a major recovery tax.
276
pitches
The table damage is paired with staff damage: 276 pitches, 26 runs allowed, and no clean reset game.
263
pitches
Two wins and the best table position, but the 19-8 game still cost 146 pitches over seven innings.
138
pitches
Idle on Day 2 after the walk-off; the question is whether Diaz's 128-pitch opener echoes into Hroši.
123
pitches
Cleanest Day 2 exchange: 123 pitches, Castillo covered eight innings, and the favorite lane held.
/ Wednesday board
These are post-Day-2 matchup updates, not a replay of the pre-event card. Current run differential, Day 2 run differential, and staff workload/rest are layered onto StatPredict v2.
Rouen Huskies at Lions de Savigny
ROU 6.9 - SAV 4.2
Rouen's two one-run losses still grade cleaner than Savigny's -15 table state.
Olimpija Karlovac at Hroši Brno
HRO 6.8 - BOK 2.9
Hroši remain heavy favorites, with a small rest/workload haircut because Karlovac was idle on Day 2.
/ Source and model note
This recap uses official WBSC Europe box-score data for games 3-4, plus the already-cached Day 1 official payloads. The tournament board fixes games 1-4, simulates games 5-10 from StatPredict probabilities, applies the same head-to-head/TQB/run-differential tiebreak stack, and prices the final from the forecast matchup board.
The full Statbase platform gives clubs and federations the working layer behind reports like this: live probabilities, player-form boards, matchup simulations, private notes, and exports for staff meetings.
