The tournament will feature its third edition, with Australia, Japan, South Korea and Chinese Taipei competing. It will be Australia’s second appearance after finishing fourth in 2023.

The APBC is an under-24 tournament that allows each team to carry three overage players younger than 29.

Players to Watch

Brent Iredale, 3B - The 23-year-old third baseman was selected in the seventh round of the 2025 MLB Draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates. He played his first full minor league season in 2026.

After a difficult April in which he posted a .228 OPS in 12 games in Single-A, Iredale was assigned to the Florida Complex League. He returned to Single-A Bradenton on June 11 and showed a significant turnaround at the plate.

During his second stint with Bradenton, Iredale posted a .983 OPS with 14 home runs and 37 RBIs in 58 games. He was promoted to High-A Greensboro for the playoffs.

Clayton Campbell, 1B - Originally from New Zealand, the 23-year-old first baseman reached High-A and Double-A for the first time in the Detroit Tigers organization.

In 99 games, Campbell posted a .741 OPS with 10 home runs and 55 RBIs. His 10 home runs were three more than he hit in 2024 and 2025 combined and nearly matched his total of 12 across his first four professional seasons.

Conor Myles, P - The 25-year-old is coming off his final season of college baseball at the University of Texas at San Antonio. He went 10-1 with a 3.28 ERA and 65 strikeouts in 74 innings.

Myles was named the American Conference Pitcher of the Year and is expected to serve as Australia’s No. 1 starter in the tournament.
