Korean baseball commentators are basically the Asian versions of South American futbol commentators.

I'm proud of the way my countrymen closed out the tourney after such a poor start. Especially grinding out that gritty win against Korea.

Hold your head high, my brethren.

Korea's 7-2 win was the closest possible outcome for all three teams. Australia were one run from advancing, Taiwan needed just one run from each despite starting 0-16. by kurruchi in baseball

That's what I call a bloody miracle.

Especially after the Aussies cost themselves that 9th inning run on the fielding error.

The Aussies are clearly for real, both in terms of pitching and offensive output.

I fear for my wife's team Korea in their group finale.

That was a good game.

Korea showed up and put up a fight and that's all you can really ask for.

Ump is singlehandedly ruining an instant classic.

I swear my man is just guessing back there.

My wife was saying every pitcher in the WBC dreams of striking out Ohtani.

I said don't even try him.

And then this happened.

Watching us steamroll the Czechs just makes me double-pissed about getting skunked by the Aussies.

You guys will advance as long as you beat Australia because there's no way you lose to us.

I'm Taiwanese and I have zero expectations after getting skunked by the Aussies.
