Baseball at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing will be held over an eleven day period starting August 13 and concluding with the medal finals on August 23. Eight teams will compete in the Olympic baseball tournament, and the competition consists of two rounds. The preliminary round follows a round robin format, where each of the teams plays all the other teams once. Following this, the top four teams advance to a single elimination round culminating in the bronze and gold medal games.
The International Olympic Committee has voted to remove baseball from the program for the 2012 Olympics, so this is the last time that baseball will be contested at the Olympics unless it is reinstated at a future date. In 2004, Cuba won gold, followed by Australia (Silver) and Japan (Bronze). Baseball at the 2008 Olympics: http://en.wikipedia.org/w... Baseball at the 2004 Olympics: http://en.wikipedia.org/w...
