mobile.twitter.com › status 7 hours ago · The starting pitching matchup will be Yu Darvish vs. Merrill Kelly if Japan advances to face USA in the WBC championship, per... Should have done it with two outs instead for more drama lol.

Great game....now it all comes down to pitching tmrw night. Mexico overachieved a bit to get to this spot. The matchup of styles that we have all been waiting for...and Murakami finally came through after being relatively disappointing for most of the WBC.

Is there anyone at this point that wouldn't prefer to have Yoshida instead?

Cojones getting that bunt down for the catcher and Nootbaar to drive tying runs in.

Kondoh would look nice in the Sox outfield but tapped out budget-wise. Same with Roel Santos of Cuba.

Sasaki would have the fastest average heater of every big leaguer last year other than Hunter Greene...all this at ages19-20-21. Beat Ohtani's high school record for fastest pitch as well.

Or Haseley. Or Roel Santos LF on the Cuban national team.

no oblique please!

Can even fit in production time for new reggaeton video "Mr .450." https://www.mlb.com/gameday/mexico-vs-japan/2023/03/20/719499/preview Sasaki vs. Patrick Sandoval tmrw night Mexico vs. Japan A loss by JPN here would be shocking. Would have personally preferred Venezuela vs. Japan...but Mexico City being a future major league expansion city much more likely and better for the sport worldwide.

patented pull hook from TA7

Slight pro Venezuela crowd...perfect location for this game to make it pretty fair and ratchet up the atmosphere like in Asian and Latin American stadiums.

Almost shocked when Trout doesn't come through... Somehow, doesn't happen if Angels vs. Sox, lol.

Lynn topping out in 93-94 range. LoL at Turner hitting 9th with one of the biggest contracts in baseball history.

Uh oh...

Ruiz for Closer.

Carved up by off speed stuff. Tight slider to go with 97.

Jose Ruiz looking like he could be in quickly if Perez doesn't recover. Five consecutive hits by US.

Coming out aggressive against Martin Perez. 2-0 and still no outs in the first.

Puerto Rico ambushing Urias and Mexico 4-0 in the first…

Colas coming back down to Earth a bit in these past few games...

Uh oh.
