I said Japan was going to win this entire thing when the WBC started.


I was right. Team USA had opportunities to get runs and failed. Japan was the better team tonight. Great tourney! Hope more players play next time.

Single elimination games are always tough, but I gotta say, they’re also kind of fun..

Absolutely. Winner takes all. Winner takes it all.

Team USA had a lot of RISP tonight and did diddly. That's the achilles heel. Credit to Japan.

Yoshi is going to be fun to watch on the Sox. Hope he was recruiting some of his teammates for the future!

That was the best international baseball tournament of all time, culminating in Ohtani vs. Trout. Can't write a better script. MLB hit this one out of the park, no pun intended.

Can't wait to see Yoshi with the Red Sox now

I am ready for the Macho Madness with Masataka Yoshida.

After that loss to Japan, I never want to hear any MLB luddite utter again that NPB is AAAA, a feeder league, or, even more insultingly, a minor league ever again. That Japan squad only had 4 MLB players on it and went undefeated as well as holding an all MLB based Team USA to two runs. All of which was done without Tomoya Mori, Yuki Yanagita, Seiya Suzuki, Hayato Sakamoto, Ryoji Kuribayashi, Kaima Taira, Koji Chikamoto, and Kodai Senga on their roster. NPB is on the level of MLB. Time to put respect on that league's name.

Or what, Dad? What's the consequence going to be? Because I think you're wrong, but I don't want to get punished.

There's no consequences other than you proving that you obviously know zero about baseball or that time has passed you by. To say anything opposite to the now universal truth that NPB and MLB are equals after last night's game makes you look silly or old as dirt.
