The Baseball5 competition at the Dakar 2026 Summer Youth Olympic Games has opened with mixed-team opening-round matches pitting Chinese Taipei against Cuba and Senegal against Turkey. The games mark the first Summer Youth Olympics held in Africa, and Baseball5, a fast five-on-five version of baseball played without a pitcher or fielding gloves, is among the sports drawing attention as results come in from the opening round.
