AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
>>153781261thanks
Both countries are undefeated and on track to advancing out of the pool group. Now they battle for the top seed.
Who plays baseball in Australia?
Australia will not let their best pitchers play in this game right?Because it’s the next game with Korea that matters.

Sugano about to give Aussies an early lead
Wow that was a great play by their RF
indeed some bay baw going on
Sugano?????

Macdonald might be the most handsome man in the WBC
Are there any young Japanese players that are gonna come to MLB soon?
>>153781403yeah

>>153781403>youngHow young are we talking here
>>153781403Teruaki Sato
>>153781418Japan is a Pizza Hut nation
If Australia wins, it will mean that both Japan and Australia will advance to the next round, so will the Japanese team be met with much resentment from Korean and Taiwanese fans?

Sugano isn’t that good, Aussies could get to him
>>153781460those prices are in USD not AUD
did perkins shake ohtanis hand?
>3 balls hit over 100 mph>nothing to show for it Hit it where they ain’t chads they laughed at us
>>153781473He's better than Kikuchi though the bar couldn't be lower
>>153781287I know the stadium used by Brisbane in the ABL is about half a mile from my house. So it definitely exists.For the majority of Australians though, our entire knowledge of baseball comes from Wii Sports
How come Japan gets to be Samurai Japan but the other teams don't get some cool name tied to their country?
>>153781352Me too, what state?
Sugano is most likely the starter in the final.
>>153781508What would the US be called? The Yankees?
I dont like how close the camerapersons get to the crowdperson theyre filming
Any abos in the aus team
>>153781533it was funny in the Korea Japan game seeing the awkward looks the Korean guys would give seeing the camera a few inches from their face while they're trying to cheer
Very nice
>>153781537Aus baseball is the whitest possible community you can find
>>153781497You should go to a game
>>153781537Your mum isn't playing

>>153781537more of a boomerangball peoples
this MacDonald guy's control is terrible but he's getting lucky with these Japan flyout/groundouts
>>153781526Steinbrenners will never allow it. They genuinely hate the WBC as is. They would chimp the fuck out if the national team used that name.
>>153781476Eating out is expensive here, I'm sure it breaks even somehow

I have no point of reference to tell if we’re doing well or not.
>>153781589Could Ohtani hit the emperor with a foul ball?
suganover
Hey Ohtani, the match is being watched by the Emperor.
we can actually bat pretty well ayebut when our bullpen comes in and starts throwing 83mph meatballs we're in trouble
I actually care about this game but fuck it I'm too tiredWould be ok with either team winning. Good luck straya cunts and nip bros
>>153781605Death penalty for blasphemy
Its okamotover
>>153781631Thanks :)

>>153781717yeah hes godlyhes also an insane pitcher, but isnt allowed to pitch at the wbc because the dodgers and his insurance company wont allow it

Why do they keep chanting like Indians
i don't like baseball
hasn't applied in this game, but when a team challenges a play and they send it for review, do they send it to new york, or is there a secret cabal of umps all around the world watching this tournament?

Go Ohtani
fucking convies bottled up
are they gonna walk him or pull taiwan?
dear oh dear oh dear...
It's happening
this is like bizarro /cric/ but instead of kiwis, brits and indians there are japs and americans
>>153781287At the youth level it's massive, at least it was when i was a kid. There's a lot of crossover with cricket
>>153781895if it didnt score a run theyd definitely walk him

this game is kind of shit, but because it's so close people will be like "WOW WHAT A TENSE GAME!!!!" this game isn't even a cool pitcher's battle, the batters are all just swinging at garbage for cheap flyouts/groundouts
This has gotta be the quietest I've ever heard the Japanese crowd during a Samurai Japan gameAussies got em shook

It's only one run2 run Murakami Sama home run next inning will get it back and then some
I've seen it described as>Baseball: a game of outs with a few hits/runs>Cricket: a game of hits/runs with a few outsSo is cricket less slurpy?
WEW
shamefur dispray for the emperor oh lawdy
are >we elite?
More pressure on the pitchers now to protect a lead, watch them crumble, just a psychological thing
1 run win calling it
>>153782153cricket is a batting sportbaseball is a pitching sportfundamentally different gamesit's retarded to compare them
KWAAAAAAAAAAB
Are these guys actually Australian or are they like American rejects similar to how minnow cricket nations fill their teams?

>Japs in this thread panicking at a potential group stage lossQuit acting like you won't make the finals.

rigged

Baseball is more relevant in Australia than rugby
>>153782212We have the same number of world cups as kiwis and we have an uncountable number of rugby league world cups buts that's to be expected

>>153782190Hi Taro/Zhang/Burgerson
>>153782221no amount of cope can make up for losing the bledisloe cup 22 years in a row. Thats unheard of in international sport.Even Canada in ice hockey can beat USA more than that.
>>153782190That used to be the case but at this point pretty much every player who's eligible wants to play, only reason some players aren't participating are because they couldn't get insurance on their contracts
>>153782240not so fast, whitey!
Naruhito please stay in your palace!

I thought we were supposed to be elite fielders by blood

Is PigRoach gonna pitch for Japan at all?
>>153782476that pic is like a digital handshake between us
Now the crowd is back to singing lel
>>153782432I'd have taken the DR over Japan in any game before the tournament started. Japan straight up doesn't have the pitching to deal with that lineup.
Why do americans pronounce aussie like that
>>153782504We don't really use that vowel sound you guys do at the start of that word
>>153782504S makes an ess sound
>>153782493you've come a long way, but innings when referring to a single inning...
>>153782509what about pronouncing the "zee" as a "see"you manage to get the whole thing wrong
My batting stance is exactly like Maki and I hit dingers over the leftfield fence non stop
>>153782484iirc technically he still could but apparently Dodgers have absolutely forbid Team JP to let him pitch even in a do-or-die scenario.
>>153782483If obscure retired jav girls cans still have careers, then surely a former mainsteam kpop idol will have a much easier time continuing their career even outside of kpop
>>153782500The Nicaragua game should cracks in the DR pitching too tbf, but yeah DR literally has a modern day murderers row

>>153782520cause that's how we say "Australia"
>>153782484France Bro, this still hasn't cured my PTSD

Sasaki is cooked as a starter. He should really prioritize being a closer
>>153782525If you're referring to Kaho Shibuya, she's kind of an outlier as a fluent English speaker with a talent for networking
gg
it's over
>>153782531They've lost their will and I can't blame them
>>153782523They're not allowed to do that exactly, he's not pitching because he's on an innings limit after just getting back to pitching last year
>IBBAussies?More like Pussies

its all falling apart

So what’s the verdict on Ibata’s managing?
>>153782575theres no such thing as a safe lead in baseball
>>153782579Sheesh so Korea is forced to not just win but blow you guys out and hold you to under 3 runs, that's a tall fucking task

>>153782579I’m pretty low iq so I don’t know what this means
Morishita? More like MoriSHITTER
>>153782608>we dont even need to win and we can go through
Someone post the pic of that Korean getting BTFO when he stepped off base
Alright there's still a chance
>>153782579Korea is going to go sicko mode on you
>>153782612take that back
>>153782616pray you don't get mercy ruled
>>153782576If she hasn't shown her nips at some point, I dont really care
>>153782584https://vocaroo.com/1a9lKnatgLYN
>>153782608Unless Korea absolutely shits on you tomorrow you're good
I feel bad for Taiwan who are very likely crashing out tomorrow but Aussies surprised everyone this year
>>153782595Not to mention Game 3 going to the 18th also caused Ohtani (P) to be exhausted for Game 4. He didn't look sharp at all after that marathon.
>>153782597Not great, visibly worse than Kuriyama. Kondoh needs to be benched ASAP and Sato needs to be in full-time even at Fatty or Okamoto's expense. Kikuchi shouldn't have been played over other lefties like Sumida or Miyagi. Honestly shouldn't even be on the team, same with Sugano.
>>153782653didnt he only sleep like 4 hrs or something
>>153782643Anyone plugged into minor league prospects knows Australia's been producing a shitton of talent recently, at least compared to what they used to, but this is definitely the first time they've showed it in international competition
Japan’s relief pitching is going to get lit up by the Americas

HOLD ON A MINUTE
HOLD YOUR WAGYU
just need to do that three more times and you're good
Homer
ITS NOT FUCKING OVER
>>153782597he’s borderline retarded
NANI
>>153782656agree
>>153782653I have a theory that because Shohei's hitting was really hot in game 3, getting intentionally walked cooled it back down which is why he hit like shit the rest of the series
Ayo hol up
>>153782622mate at this point we *deserve* to go throughwe might easily mercy rule the 'reans
LMAO
ohhhh we still got a game
OH SHIT?
please.. i need to sleep
Hahahahahaha
Those nippiedoos!
DRAG THIS GOOK
Australia has a chance to do the funniest thing
we're not dead yet
owari da.
WE ARE SO BACK
KEKKKKK
RUH ROH
>>153782709sike
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
N-never a doubt
That was a great little "don't get cocky" lesson at the end for Japan 2bh
Australia may have lost but Japan should not feel good at all about that game
ggswe're actually lowkey goatedplease join us same time tomorrow when we will commit heinous acts on the koreans
So nearly
Japan’s pitching is dogshit holy kekBARELY won against the aussies, it won’t go like this against DR or Venezuela
Wow.
Why don’t professional baseball shake hands with opponents at the end
>Okamoto shit>Taisei shitY*miuritards in shambles
I'm tired
man
kek, good look with korea
I fucking love the WBC, I wish they did this every year
literally one fucked up DP turn away from an all-time upset
fuck you netflix
moral victors
>>153782735everyone's hands are too sticky
Kennelly just had to catch the ball lol
GG Aussies, hope you hilariously humiliate Korea again. Awesome team, ya killed it today. Jap lineup needs to figure their shit out before the next round.
IMAGINEIFWECARED
Ohtani might end up pitching in the home stretch of this tournament after allThe fuck are the Dodgers gonna do about it? Bench him? Reduce his paycheck? Lmao
why cant they show the emperor on tv?
>>153782773We'd all turn to stone, you fool!
So funny that people there are posting videos of the emperor on twitter
>>153782773Similar to showing a dead aboriginal
I'm a retard, what role does the emperor even play nowadays? Is it like the British royal family where it's mainly a symbolic thing?
dw japan, okamoto being on the jays just means hes contractually obligated to go 3 games in a row without a hit before getting 4 HR in one game randomly
>>153782794he smiles and waves hands at people
First game thread to make it to 500 Australia runs /sp/
>>153782799Funny enough Okamoto was actually pretty consistent for Yomiuri especially compared to other sluggers like Murakami and Sato who are pretty streaky. Kinda weird to see him this worthless at the plate.
>>153782826US-BR
Alright what other matchup is shaping up to be the best game today?
>>153782826usa vs gb last night
If you struggled this hard to beat ausgaylia then you have very big problems Nippon
>>153782848not today but US vs MEX match is a must watch in near future
>>153782826was a good threadnow time for a sudoku youtube video to fall asleep to
>>153782826see >>153769608getting a little too uppity aren’t we m8
>>153782856we can always summon Imai from Huston if things get tough
>>153782883>less posts we still run /sp/
understand?I don't understand.
>>153782944if aus wins, they advanceif korea wins 5-0, 6-1, or 7-2, they advanceif korea wins 8-3, 8-4, 8-5..., they need to do a tie breaker with taiwan to advance
How did Australia of all people get so good at baseball? They even gave Japan a run for their money in a close game. Everyone was hyping up Korea and Teipei this tournament and no one expected Aussies to be the 2nd group out of their pool. If someone is going to topple Japan, it is going to have to be one of the LATAM teams or USA.
>>153783170Australia beat Korea last tournament. very few people actually underestimate them, but I didn’t think they’re this good and we’re this bad.
>>153782658No one wants to play cricket with a bunch of jeets so this was inevitable given the game is well established here.
>>153781261Impressive showing by the aussies
>>153782826Mexico vs GB actually
