Jaden Agassi's Baseball Debut for Germany Ends in Bitter Loss

The son of tennis legends Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi struggled as a pitcher in Germany's World Baseball Classic qualifier against Brazil.

Jaden Agassi, 23, made his debut for the German national baseball team during the World Baseball Classic qualifier in Arizona.
Agassi, pitching in the fourth inning against Brazil, allowed four runs and was substituted before the inning ended, contributing to Germany's 7-9 loss.
Germany now faces a critical match against Colombia to secure a chance for their first-ever qualification for the World Baseball Classic in 2026.
Agassi, who plays in the MLB Draft League, has described representing his mother’s home country as an honor and hopes to inspire more interest in baseball in Germany.
Despite the setback, Agassi remains focused on the tournament and views it as an opportunity to advance his career and potentially earn a professional contract.
