Pretty cool seeing Ohtani strike out teammate Mike Trout to secure another WBC for Japan.

For sure. If a novelist had written that ending, nobody would have believed something like that would happen in real life. Absolutely amazing.

I saw the last few innings...the whole 9th inning buildup of Ohtani coming in to pitch the 9th was really just the stuff that legends are created from, and striking out Trout cementing it forever in baseball lore. I imagine the whole of Japan is just going nuts over it.
I believe this year's WBC has really jumped up several notches in importance in baseball fans minds, especially those from the United States, and has a shot at becoming somewhat of a World Cup-like event from here on out (of course still at a lower global level than the World Cup). Brian |
