Our World Baseball Classic Final Four is set. Team USA will square off tonight at 8pm ET on FS1 with the Dominican Republic in a dynamic matchup of Paul Skenes vs. the formidable Dominican lineup to see who will advance to the WBC Championship Game In tomorrow’s game, Italy will try to continue their dream run all the way to a finals berth, but will have to pull off another big upset against a dangerous Venezuela club that knocked out Shohei Ohtani and defending champion Japan last night in a thriller.
Today on the site, Kento will discuss how we got to this point in the WBC by recapping yesterday’s action. Estevão will preview the Reds—who really did make the playoffs last year, we promise—Nick will celebrate an awesome 1980s Yankee’s birthday, and John will run the weekly social media spotlight. Then we have some doubleheader action! Estevão and Peter will have you covered with separate game threads and recaps.
