non-USA games gamethreadColombia vs Puerto Rico at 6 EST on FS1Dominican Republic vs Nicaragua at 7 EST on FS2Czechia vs Taiwan at 10 EST on FS2streams on freestreamslive or vipbox or somethingColombia always fields a decent team capable of beating anyone on a good day but they lack star power. Even with a depleted squad through little fault of their own, Puerto Rico looks to take care of business at their home pool in San Juan. Likely the best game of the night, pretty evenly matched and should be a great crowd.SPs: Jose Quintana v. Seth LugoDominican Republic should cruise today, their lineup full of all stars should be fun to watch. Nicaragua hopes not to embarrass themselves.SPs: Cristopher Sanchez v. Ronald MedranoTaiwan had high hopes before this tournament and have had excellent fan turnout in Tokyo, and the team has given those fans absolutely nothing to cheer about. This will likely be a battle for relegation. Czechia had not so high hopes before this tournament but are definitely capable of beating this crippled Taiwan.SPs: Jan Novak v. Chen Zhuang
Please finish this WBC thread first:>>153749977>>153749977
>>153742448>>153742448wrong thread retard
the mind of a gentard can't comprehend the concept of a gamethread
lineups for the first game
They should have started the WBC in like 1950 and continually expanded after that. Imagine the crazy hijinks they could have gotten into the 70s with this shit?
>>153754122it's actually a miracle that the WBC exists at all, MLB actually doing something not retarded is insane.
>>153754000Puerto Rico's lineup looks nerfed compared to previous years
Cmon colombia
>>153754146dumb insurance shit for Lindor and Correa, though Lindor is injured anyway. And Baez suspended for dude weed during the previous WBC, pretty stupid to suspend him for that I think. They'd be a weaker team even with all their guys I think, Puerto Rico baseball is in declinebut at least they have a washed Arenado
>ring chasing in international baseballCringe
Team Canada is meh, but I want to see how far Vladdy can get in this. If they win this, they'll probably give him a throne back home.
>>153754182It's retarded, they should have cap limits like in soccer.
How is my man Elly not in the WBC?
Arenado and Lugo can't even speak Spanish. Should be banned from playing for Puerto Rico
pinches gringos
>>153754236Stroman was on Team PR before.
>>153754236Two Korean-American players who can't speak Korean. Last time around the Japanese-American player had sketchy Japanese, wasn't fluent in it.
I'll be using the genny, thanks
shouldn't we finish this one first?>>153749977
>>153754283op is a retarded faggot, please be patient
tfw pitch count limits will prevent my man Jose Quintana from pitching a perfect gamejust like against USA 9 years ago, it's not fucking fair
>>153754283>none of the gamethreads hitting bump limitjust use this one until the USA game starts. >>153754293I'm not OP but it's dumb to have everyone in 5 different threads. just make a new one for each game and bump soccer threads off the catalog.
>>153754281I'm just gonna wait out till the USA thread. Don't feel like having 3 tabs opens for 3 slow threads
>>153754304that's why I'm trying to tard wrangle people here but >noooo muh fuckin other threads that no one will search for aren't at bump limit ahhhhhhh
based Q will make them all ground out to Urshela. efficient
that ad is way too fucking bright. holy distracting, hides the ball too

>>153756286Nicaragua is great. If you want I can post a good starter travel itinerary. One of my favorite countries in the Americas and I've been to every single continental one besides Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana
>>153756286Should be fine, its one of the safer countries in Latin America, about as safe as Costa Rica and Panama or El Salvador (post crime). Though the government is pretty corrupt but my brother and his family came back from a trip recently that went fine. Its a pretty lazy and chill country.I went when there was some political turmor a few years ago and it wasnt uhhh "fun" but even then they dont bother forigeners even though I only look the part on the surface. But that was quite a few years ago now, I think everyone is just waiting for the president and vp (his wife) to die. Not sure what happens next after that.
they can still pick it. Even Vientos had a nice play
>sotoKEEEEEEEEEK
>>153756359Just don't spend time in Managua. Nothing to see/do there and it's where the crime is.
Wooo, sit down

>>153756433And Maysaya from what I heard. But I always either went to my parents home town up north or San Juan Del Sur (though its touristy now). I think there is also a resort in the volcano island in the middle to or something. I heard Leon is fine too I been there once. But I havnt been since post covid.
>>153756537Otempe island is what you're thinking of and I highly recommend it. Rent a motor scooter and spend 3-4 days there. You can hike the volcanos or just go ride to the little towns and lagoons it's so fun.The must-sees IMO are Leon, Grenada, Masaya, Otempe

Bases loaded for Vladdy Jr
damn he almost had it
>>153757191better than hockey or basketball. At least there's a big three here instead of a big 1.
they using poverty bats today or something, theres been like 6 breaks
Good work, they need to keep the score down so we have chance to qualify next year without going to eliminations games. Nicaragua is good enough to dominate their pool in those but also gets raped by bigger teams, though Nicaragua is performing a lot better this year imo. Last WBC their inexperience really showed.
>>153757390wouldnt you want a bat that doesn't break? just thinking back to kirk's ground out in the WS last year, maybe he should've used a better bat?
Is the low score (i assume 3-1 is low) normal?
Why are there so many Japanese on the Brazil team?

pissi
Brazil put up a good fight. Yanks put an ungodly amount of money into sports meanwhile they're fielding 40 year olds and blokes with day jobs. Their starting shortstop is the Hanshin translator.

Absolute snoozer slate thus far need Japan Korea to pop off tomorrow
Brazil gonna get mercy ruled :(
>>153757765We'll have our first relegation bowl starting in a couple minutes
>>153757765Nicaragua DR was kinda funCzechia vs Taiwan about to start. the battle for relegation
>>153757765This 2023 was so much better.
>>153757761We just need more natives then we already disproportionately field, they're basically our black guys when it comes to sport
are the WBC pools only airing on the Fox Sports APP and not the actual tv station?
welp
rip in piece
>>153757821the US one is on television but that's it
>>153757794plenty of time for some great games but 2023 is going to be tough to beat.wew Nicaragua could still get mercy ruled>>153757821all the games but a couple are on the Fox networks, mostly FS1 or FS2.

>>153757800
So DR finally woke up?
>>153757878That was SICK because the stadium prevented it from being 500+ it was genuinely hit so hard it was a lethal weapon to the stands at this point.
Brazil's first game against US was mean, it should've started with US vs Mexico and have these shittier teams warm up against each other.
>home run ends it
MERCY MERCY WE WANT MERCY!
ok this game got dumbCan we watch the taiwan czech game
>For the 2023 WBC, Korea had Gold Glove-winning infielder Tommy Edman, who was born in the U.S. to a Korean mother. Edman was not available this time because of an offseason ankle surgery.Shame. I think Korea could have been reallly good with Edman.
>ynr anons thinking niggaragua had a chance
>>153757943They're a decent team with some hustle, and the game is closer for most of it than the score implies. DR is just a tier above them.
>>153757788>>153757792Relegation and 2nd place matchups are all I'm looking forward to in pool play, too many clear-cut best teams
>you can't describe our games without our explicit consentWe're all committing crimes!

>>153758016Pretty zzzzzz looks obviously like DR, USA and Japan but the fourth is pretty open still.
>had to download the fox sports app on my phone because the website wasn't workingTaiwan fans packed the stadium again, team finally gave them a couple runs too. looks like they want to give them right back though
>>153758077Fourth will be Mexico/Puerto Rico for quarters
there he is, the mustache!I thought he wasn't here, him not starting is why they're losing
>>153753906The name Nicaragua is derived from a combination of "Nicarao", the name of a prominent indigenous Nahua chief who lived around present-day Lake Nicaragua, and "agua", the Spanish word for water. This gives the name the meaning of "land of the Nicarao people and water" or "here surrounded by water".LETS GO INDIAN WATER!
Harper has actually been an underrated great 1B

Damn sorry CzechTaiwan was fifth in 2023 right?
>>153758293I will go there in 9 more posts
It’s weird cheering for Judge for once, but he’s an American Patriot for the next month or so.
>>153758341does it feel... good?
really love how Taiwan's fans have showed up in Tokyo. The non home team games tend to struggle for attendance, especially in the Asia pools, not the case for Taiwan's games this time. Looking good for Taiwan hosting a pool again in the next WBC, especially with their new 40k seat stadium. They'll probably do two pools in Asia again but it might be Korea's turn and I can't see them ever not giving Japan a pool. Maybe they can go back to one of the previous formats with a second group stage and host so they can have three pools in Asia and three in the Americas
>>153758359It’s feels like rolling in mud, it’s fun but I feel dirty
>>153758366>really love how Taiwan's fans have shown up in Tokyo.I agree. It was really good.
>>153758366They should do one with all the stadiums close togetherDodgers Stadium, Angels Stadium, Petco, AT&T
>>153758524Petco has hosted WBC games before, I'm pretty sure Dodgers have too
>>153758524not going to happen as long as Japan is the primary market for this, which it will be as long as Ohtani is around at the very least. The tournament would have to grow a shit ton in the USA before we can dream of hosting it entirely here. And it won't be entirely in Japan because MLB players wouldn't agree to it and also it would kill whatever momentum the tournament has here.but I think California deserves some love after a couple straight WBCs focused in Miami
>>153758552We can really stop with the puerto rico shit tho. It should only be in USA and Japan
new>>153757527>>153757527
>>153758616why can't we just stay in this one
>>153758593oh shit kid rock in da genny
it was a good thread split if I do say so myself
>>153758593Nah I'm of the mind that winner should always get to host a pools round next time. 1 Asian, 1 LatAm, and 2 US pool locations is good
