I thought there was a play-in round to get the last slot of each Pool. Maybe I misunderstood that bit of the structure.

The teams who have first round byes usually do some exhibition matches against local teams for practice and marketing purposes. For example, Team USA will scrimmage against the San Francisco Giants and Team Canada against the Chicago Cubs.
