I overslept and missed Netherlands-Japan, is there any chance at all it'll ever get broadcast or uploaded somewhere again?

>>74670821
Thanks Anon. Fortunately, cause of the east coast snow, I have no work today, so its the perfect day to enjoy international baseball.

侍ジャパン行け!

>no one cheering for cuba
Sad...

>just one guy with a helmet

no one was even looking at the batter, all on the pitcher, they'd be fucked if a ball or bat went their way

To Anons in Japan: how big of a deal is the WBC? I see its in all the major newspapers, but I dont trust media. Is it something people in Japan really talk about and follow?

It's just entertainment and of course many people don't have an interest in WBC though.

>>74671280
Yeah, I am surprised they did not let Maeda play when they let Adrian Gonzales and Sergio Romo play

Probably were scared about the Mexican fanbase

Maeda is too important

I'm a Dodgers fan and I'm pretty bothered too

>>74671315
Teams are so cautious with pitchers and pitches thrown these days. Sad

本当にそんなに人気があるか。凄い。侍ジャパンがWBCを優勝するのは日本人に大切な事らしいです。

You can literally bring in all the booze you want to Japanese baseball games lmao

Cubans are lazy baseball players, even though they're super athletic. See Soler not hustling his ass in the WS and Chapman getting beat down the line to cover first base.

Cuban catching was a mistake.

>>74671450
I don't know why but it just seems to be the Cuban's who are built like refrigerators.
And China was still slower than them on the basepaths.

israel is now using a bunch of AAA tier american jews

>>74671593

Imported Jewish-American fringe Major League players and prospects.

>>74671574
After watching the pool B games none of the other teams generally looked as....rectangular as the Cubans have. Yeah unis will do that but something stands out for the gommies.
Like, even vs non stringbean asians, like the Strayans or Jews.

Dude can run. Nice play.

>>74671633
I think the rule is you have to have at least a great-grandparent from the country to play for them in the WBC (see: Italy).

>Chin level swinging strike

Future Oriole right here

>>74671680
no, but that might make you eligible for citizenship in some countries, which is the case for Italy

>>74671680
just parent required for WBC.

>The nationality law of Italy bestows citizenship jure sanguinis. There is no limit of generations for the citizenship via blood.

Italy is another special snowflake, most countries that do citizenship by blood like that is just from your parents

>>74671824
I'd feel a lot more confident if we had our A team: Kershaw, Sale, Trout, etc. I'm not even sure how much of our B team is hanging around, as I just heard Chris Archer went back to Rays camp. Other teams want it a lot more, and I would not be surprised at all if USA didnt make it to the final round.

>>74671824
I'm going to the DR vs USA game Saturday
I'm hype as fuck desu

>>74671841
it would have been nice if someone like Kershaw or Bumgarner was at least in the designated pitchers pool, so if they make the championship round they could really hype up those games

Kershaw would blow it though so maybe not him

yeah it was like 10 pitches

>>74672027
the wbc can't afford it though, in order to let players play they have to buy insurance for them and they can't afford it if every 100M+ player plays, especially ones with injury concerns like darvish and tanaka

Isn't Itani part Korean?

>>74671989
He and Ernesto Mejia were why I became a Lions fan when I started watching NPB

>>74672013
Makita used 11 pitches to retire the side
He's not even a closer

ultra manlet Altuve wouldn't have caught that line drive, then Odor had the big hit in the 9th

truly Vizquel is a baseball savant

>>74672068
?
are you okay?

>>74672056
why do they have Japan instead of Nihon on their kits?

>>74672038
The Yabkees and Rangers are not going to take a chance on 100m arms like Tanaka or Darvish. I'm actually surprised that the White Sox and Cardinals of all teams let Jose quintana and Carlos Martines go.

>>74672075
He is Aussie.

>>74672087
ah, i see :D

>>74672083
Q at least is not a guy the sox really have to worry about, he's definitely put in enough work to be game ready and even if he isn't 100% he knows his limits.

In the end it's hardly different from spring training as long as you're not retarded, especially since teams often give their players limits even stricter than the WBC pitch counts.
