why didn't they save yamamoto for this game? any random pitcher would have been fine against the czech
ITFWCB
>>153762916because it sends a message of disrespect you stupid fucking retard
>>153762916The Koreans don't deserve consideration based on their current ability and performance.
>>153762916memeiners, jasy and anaels legend kooch is on the mound show some repect

>>153762934it's baseball, anything can happen. the greatest baseball teams of all time still lost 40 games a season
>>153762968the new generation is too retarded to type in english
>>153762968tonight we are all korean
Gooks vs Nips, who we got?
Who's everyone rooting for?
>>153762993what new generation? they have a fertility rate of like 0.6for every 100 koreans alive today, there will only be 6 grand-grandchildrenthey basically don't exist anymore
Kikuchi spits like an American now, very very disrespectful. How do you say "race traitor" in Japanese?

told you they shoulda used yama for this one
>>153762990>it's baseball, anything can happenyeah in full summer modein a tournament setting, ESPECIALLY in round robin play you send your biggest rivals as much disrespect as you can and make them flip the frick out
Let's go Korea!
Attaboy Kim
lfg Korea
>>153763038???
I'm desperate or a close game>inb4 somehow a blowout win for Korea
hits on hits on hits on hitsjapan getting embarrassed
Japan bros…Kikuchi’s Zainichi status?
I have high hopes for a rather depleted Korean team
Bro Kikuchi is selling HARD
pump it up! go Korea go!
>>153763059she looks like she wants to eat me
Fucking kikuchi
>>153763059whos this cute lil linebacker
japan is trying to lose, i swear. do they not understand leftie-rightie?
>Angels pitcher stinking it upWho would've thought
Told you Kikuchi was going to job. Looked like shit in practice last week and looks like shit now. Look at Sakamoto's glove, bro can't aim.
>>153763071hes getting pulled before the innings over
>>153763085certainly going that way
Dae Han Min Guk fighting seyo!
>>153763059this thai tanny is cute
Kek they have the choking pitchers wife on Japanese television
>>153763062>kikuchi
damn that's Whitcomb's wife? top qt
kikuchi was zainchi...
Kikuchi’s wife is cute
lol why would they put yama against the shitters yesterday and not have him start against their actual historical rivalsbut let kikuchi cook, he can get in a rhythm
Suzuki is playing CF? Damn be careful there
5am baybaw
Kikuchi's wife also he's a shit pitcher
>>153763110yeah I mean that's a really obvious mistake that they'll kick themselves for if they lose
M O O N
>>153763110Uh huh
KOREAAAAAA
Ohtani can't win with these cats
>>153763118looks like ExtraEmily but not as cute
center fielder Seiya Suzuki. who could have predicted this?
kek Japan
OWARI DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>Crapan
MOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN
Ukyo and Morishita woulda had that, just saying
damn, I'm out of boozethought this would be a snoozer
moon with a moonshotjapan getting btfo
how is the japanese netflix stream?
what's the Korean pitching like though?
it's okay kooch, at least you have a hot wife to come home to
>>153763110Get to use him again sooner.
Don't Japanese players cry when they lose a match in the JBL? I wonder if they'll do the same in the WBC
Jjokbari sisters…
Was at the tokyo dome in november when japan and korea played their friendly and it was fantastic. Ended 7-7 if I remember. Proper good game
>>153763160except he went over 50 pitches for some reasonthey went to pull him at 48 and he told them no and then they pulled him at 52
ohtani putting on the infinity gauntlet..>3 runs? that's nice sweetie>hold my steroids
>>153763150it's gotta be better than this crappy american feed
baseball players aren't athletes huh?
Young Pyo Ko
>>153763165>>153763194i cooka da meatball
I can finally root for Ohtani again now that he's not playing for the D*dgers atm
Walktani
Ko is pitching scared.
home cooking for ohtani san
>>153763212Give them doggie doos a chance
>>153763160their next two games are against great britain and czech republic dude.. they dont need him to pitch those games. if their strat is to start him against absolute dogshit teams they can beat 13-0 and not play him against competitive teams then its over for the nipps
casual herewouldnt it be smarter for ohtani to simply hit a homer instead of taking the walk and relying on his teammates to RBI him?
Imagine if we actually cared about baseball
>>153763234ohtani plays 10d shogidont worry about it
>>153763234ohtani only homers 7% of the time at best, if he gets a good one he'll whack it but we're talking about a guy that gets out 65% of the time so a walk is well above average as an outcome
>>153763232I think the strat is to use him against the earliest real team in the pool and have him as rested as possible for the knockout rounds
team korea needs kpop girls at the game
>>153763234He can try but Homers aren't easy when pitchers are purposely trying to force you to walk.
The Great Seiyaman!
you can thank the cub
apologize to Seiya
SEIYAAAASSS
Korea's linsanity run coming to an end
BOO YA
S E I Y A
>>153763234If the pitcher is offering a walk you take it, most at bats are outs. A great hitter gets on base three tenths of the time, so a free base is virtually always a good deal. (and the pitcher can intentionally walk someone in the other situations anyway)
SEI YA LATER
S E I Y A A A AA A
>immediately gives them right backKorean pitching is so fucking bad god damn
Umps have been horrid so far
I changed my mind, that made up for his shitty defense. Let Kondoh be replaced instead.
>>153763265ty cubfuck pca tho
>>153763242I shouldnt have doubted the shogi
>>153763291keep it civil!
Remu in the house!
>>153763250but that clearly isnt the strat they are using because they started him against taiwan.. meanwhile korea has actually eliminated japan in a previous wbc. kikuchi shouldve started against taiwan and yama in this game, then put whoever bullpen against gb and czech and rest the starters, rely on bats to win those games ez.
she's so fucking cute bros
Either those jerseys are tight or baseball players are overweight i can never tell
>>153763304reciprocity, bruv
>>153763251this
Go fetch haha
>>153763319baseball players are fat
>>153763320
>>153763232every team is using their best pitcher against GBit's a humiliation ritual
Seiya is really strong Effortless backside HR
>>153763289Kondoh is not exactly making the Hawks proud right nowat least Moinelo dominated
>>153763251what if they're double agents?
>>153763342I'm aight. don't care personally. just hope nothing stupid happens.
>>153763312The problem is Kooch realistically shouldn't have started as all, same with Sugano. There are NPB aces they have or could bring in are better than both, use Miyagi as the main lefty. Ibata just thinks these old men are great because they're in MLB. It was bad enough with Darvish last time, now there are two of them.
>>153763356their company would probably force jap idols to wear team korea jerseys to avoid insane korean fans
have you ever taken your pet to the ball park?
I was never impressed by Kicuchi
>>153763371ibata is a fucking retard. kooch would have been fine against czechia. yama was total overkill for those guys and would have been perfect today
>>153763377korean fans like knowing their top girls are all japanese now
I’m more focused on the cute beer girl going up and down the aisle behind home plate
Not saying this in a rude way but it’s actually crazy how many kims there on for Korea
why do they keep showing that average woman?
total kikuchi redemption
>>153763408Married to the starting pitcher
hello /sp/ i must know who this woman is
>>153763389>ibata is a fucking retard.Straight up. The team is great but if/when they lose I guarantee it will be his decisions that cost them.
>>153763404The majority of people in korea are either a Kim, Lee, Park, Choi, or Jung. They don't really do the thing with diverse names.
what do we think will be the best game today after/other than this one
>>153763418she hosts Japan Railway Journal on NHK with the crosseyed professor
>>153763418Kikuchi’s babe of a wife
>>153763421>>153763404literally a majority, as in literally more than 50% of people in korea
>>153763404Every country tends to have a very common name
>>153763418@tanaka96
everyone second guessing Japan's decisions don't know anything about managing a baseball team. you're all making hot takes based on a result after the fact.
we need cute japanese ball and bat girls in mlb bros..
>>153763418That is Kikuchi's wife Remi Fukatsu she used to be a model and singer
>>153763389>>153763419that's right
>>153763418it's kikuchi's wife
>>153763433name 5
>>153763436no i was saying this before the match you fucking dunceanyone could have told you any pitcher would have been fine versus czechia but you needed someone better for korea, this isn't rocket science
>>153763418that's yamada nakadashi
>>153763438this and korean cheerleadersmake it happen manfred
>>153763453korea sucksczechia made it further in the last wbc and korea is even worse this time
remember when we used to say asians all look the same but really we had just seen like 4 asian people in our lives?now I can tell you the exact country of any asian person (female) just be looking at them
Fattybros, its over
based submarine pitching
God I want a Japanese wife honestly that I can spend nights watching MLB and WBC with. Instead I got a Thai one
>>153763436I often get the sense that MLB managers are more tactically astute than NPB on average, Japan has been slow to adapt analytics and the old guard can be set in their ways.It's true that fans overreact to results, but there are statistically correct decisions that aren't being made.
>>153763482korean wife > japanese wife
>>153763482what do thai women do?
>>153763436shut up retard, there is no reason to start yama against tawain and not against SK, who have eliminated japan in previous years.. this isnt a hot take either
>>153763453you have soft, feminine hands that have never gripped a baseball. shut up and just watch the game, geek.
>>153763487look ugly and cook nasty food
>>153763439https://www.instagram.com/_rumi.kikuchi_/
>>153763456it’s a shame that American culture is currently very against cute girls being hired to be eye candy because of “sexualization” or whatever
>>153763486does that include the surprise plastic surgery you have to pay when they don't look like she does?
where's the stream?
TOOT TOOT
>sogay blowtranny
>>153763487Have a Penis
>>153763498how would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast this morning
>Genda actually not dogshit at the plate lately>making him bunt with none onGOOD EVENING I HATE IBATA
really fun that the guys who bring trumpets can't even really play them, they just kind of know the general tune they have to play
>>153763487They seem to have a dislike for sports have an over compensation for anything Korean related. I've been kicked out of the house more than I've ever imagined for watching sports this baseball game is no exception. But she's nice, she's sweet and she makes nice food.
>>153763489this post>>153763490applies to you as well
>>153763456their out dance is peak baseball
>>153763498actually its common practice for Korean women to get plastic surgery as a present from their fathers for graduating universityso when you meet her she will already not look like your future kids
>>153763496They still do it though.Not so much with baseball (maybe because it's *very* old and traditional - like, older than women's suffrage) but basketball, hockey, and especially american football have female dancers/cheerleaders during breaks in the game.
ANO SORA EEEEE
>>153763515>she makes nice food.hard to believe since thai food is dreadful
>>153763456this will happen when the Mystery Korean Ownership group buys the Padres
>>153763522she won't look like the kids anyway because they'll have 50% your genes you dunce
>>153763534>Mystery Korean Ownershipplease let it be KT since I own KT stock
>>153763496my mlb and nfl team have cheerleaders but their huwite women and black women
>>153763516i play in an smbl and you said nothing about the content of my post just gay ad hom shit. tawain best result is 8th place in this tournament, 13 years ago.
>>153763537why are you lashing out
jones is on the Tigs so I am rooting for korea
>>153763490aren't you fucking embarrassed to be this retarded in public? everyone can see your IQ is like 80
Genuine question: who is Jamai Jones and why is he playing for Korea?
>>153763565his mom or one of his grandparents is korean I forgot which
>>153763524I feel like American cheerleaders are vestiges from a previous era though, think of how every year there’s some scandal or controversy with a different NFL team’s cheerleaders and the way they’re treated. I feel like if someone tried to introduce cheerleaders to a new sport nowadays the idea would just be shot down because it’s “sexist” and “exploitative”
>>153763565Same reason Whitcomb and Edman play for Korea
>>153763565Jamai is half Korean plays for the Tigers
>Korea leading without HSK or SMSBased please put Japan down>>153763532Baby-tier palette
>>153763484this isn't war planning. it's a low stakes tournament played in mostly for fun. Japan has nothing to prove. It's a relatively insular culture where traditional norms are more important than the sugar highs that might be gained by doing what's best in the ultimately meaningless short term of the moment.
>>153763585>le hecking sour-rinos
>After 50 pitches they must rest 4 daysWhy do these major leaguers have to take more rest than little league? In little league it's 60.
>>153763592MLB union enforced pitch counts
>Kim is REALLY good and he's totally wasted as a bench warmer on the Dodgers >if Edman was healthy, he may have given the Koreans the extra hits to win the game>The 2026 team is MUCH better than the shoddy 2023 team I predict Korea-Japan are getting out of this pool. That game was a nail biter.
