Lars Nootbaar's diving catch is my favorite. He did it twice against Team China and Team Korea, and both catches were awesome. He attracted so many Japanese baseball fans that he gained 700,000 Instagram followers in this two weeks. It's amazing!

I personally think the logo design on Puerto Rico's home jersey and cap looks really cool.✨👍

[@seccionseis2322]

It's hard to decide between both Arozarena's catches. The one against PR was so n a crucial moment it made me jump from my couch and it got Mexico to the semifinals, I was satisfied to finally make it to that round. On the other hand, at home I just looked like the boy behind Arozarena when he stole the HR from Japan. I think I will choose the one against PR.

[@donigera32]

[@seccionseis2322]

I didn't have the chance to watch the games on Fox in Mexico. Is it possible you upload or publish any of the WBC shows or summaries FOX México made? I personally think the commentators are qualified and I'd like to hear what they say about the tournament.

[@takuro4854]

Soryo GENDA's defense is superb.
Japanese baseball fans call me "Genda Tamaran."

When it's 3-0 in the bottom of the seventh inning, you'd think we'd lose indeed. But it's adversity like this that makes every second count.

Kinda tired of seeing that Randy play being number 1. The athletic ability it takes was not even as close to as difficult of a play when compared to so many others in the tournament. Anyone of those diving plays was 3 times as physically taxing.

[@RockNRollSurf]

Cope and cry. It was hands down one of the best. Most Japanese fans I talked to were in despair and in shock when Randy caught the home run. He literally became a household name in Japan for this action alone and heavily respected by the Japanese. The Mexico vs Japanese game was the real final. Japanese players were basically coasting when they played against the Americans.

[@bk7064]

​​@@RockNRollSurf People who start a sentence like that are 14 and instantly lose the little credibility they have. Facts remain the same. A jump is not nearly as difficult as risking your body on an all out dive.
In fact, if it weren't for his reaction after, it wouldn't even be talked about as much as it is. Let's be honest here.
