Two teams are left fighting for the 2023 World Baseball Classic crown: Team USA and Japan. The United States, led by Mike Trout, will face Japan and Shohei Ohtani on Tuesday night in Miami with the championship on the line. The United States is looking to repeat as champions after winning in 2017. Japan is going for its third WBC title and first since 2009. Japan ousted Mexico in walk-off fashion on Monday night to reach the title game, while Team USA crushed Cuba in the semifinals on Sunday.
This version of the WBC was originally supposed to be played in 2021 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Action got started on Wednesday, March 8 (technically first pitch of the 2023 WBC opener in Taiwan took place at 11 p.m. ET on March 7), and there are a total of 47 games.
