[Highlight] Darell Hernaiz homers in the bottom of the 10th inning to walk it off for Puerto Rico
This is what this tournament is all about
From no walk offs to two in a day.
How can you hate on the WBC?
The players clearly love it and it’s a more competitive environment than Spring Training. Yeah some of the pool play nations have weak rosters but the haters are really weird about it.
Like half of the WBC haters are Mets fans who are still salty about a player suffering a freak injury that probably would have happened at some point during the season
is it perfect? no the disparity in talent is pretty big and causes some blow out and stuff but i mean look at every Panamanian players face. this game was huge for them. go to be thankful for the foreign players who bought in when they started it and made it a serious event
Also maybe some kid in Prague or Manchester watches some games and decides he loves baseball and ends up being a superstar. Who knows?
There have been walk offs, just not walk off hrs
Put my Puerto Rican cap I bought at a Lids store right before they walked in a tying run bottom of the 9th and we started ballin. Gotta put all my faith in this team, even with all the stacked rosters this year.
We scored our first run right after I threw on the PR cap I bought in San Juan last summer. Guess I can’t remove it for the rest of the tournament.
You better not
There have been TWO walk off home runs in WBC history.
They both came today!
What a moment, what a tournament. hockey Olympics went crazy, WBC is looking iconic already, and we have the World Cup this summer? we’re eating good in international events
Yeah, I hope we keep the WBC on this current schedule every 4 years.
Fits in perfectly to follow-up the hype from Olympic hockey and prior to World Cup so it doesn’t get completely over-shadowed.
WBC is played every 3 years
Well, there’s no real standard yet. The intervals have been 3 years, 4 years, 4 years, 6 years, and 3 years (in that order). And we don’t know yet when the next one will be.
It’s kinda weird because the original format was 3 years between the first 2, then every 4 years between 2 and 4 being the spring after the summer Olympics. It was supposed to be the same for the 5th, but then COVID in 2021 and the CBA negotiations in 2022 meant it was 6 years and in a full off year of 2023 (only the Women’s World Cup). Now it’s every 3 years which means the next would be in 2029, an off year with only the FIFA Club World Cup in June.

Laz Diaz getting in the celly (to direct him to touch home plate) lol
Bro NGL… Laz blew a bunch of calls this game. But it’s Laz so… to be expected.
Spring training is better than this silly tournament /s
Ok Tarik
So fucking cool, WBC is a banger
Bruh that team is such a vibe. I love it.
My voice hurts.
What a game!!
If USA doesn’t win, USA can still win. 🤩
I hate that you don’t see this sort of emotion in the MLB
Uh. Two walk offs in one day. Wow
Field cam guy was on the diamond before that ball started descending lol
Las Vegas aviators legend Darell Hernaiz!
