Wednesday’s match against the United States in Jiangmen, China, was Poland’s 11th in the competition.
The result means the Poles remain in sixth place in Nations League table with 20 points.
On Thursday, Poland face Turkey in their last match in the Jiangmen leg of the series.
The league, which has replaced the World Grand Prix competition, is run by the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB), the sport’s world governing body.
The 2019 Women's Volleyball Nations League finals will be held in China from July 2 to 6, with the top five teams plus the host nation taking part.
The defending champions are the United States, who last year defeated Turkey 3-2 in the league’s final match.
The Poles finished ninth in last year’s Nations League games.
