The 2023 World Baseball Classic moves into the knockout rounds as Team USA finished last in the Quarterfinals field on Wednesday night. The Americans beat Colombia to finish second in Group C and have a date with Venezuela in the quarter-finals on Saturday night. Puerto Rico was also a winner on Wednesday night, but the team’s win over the Dominican Republic came at a cost closer Edwin Díaz injured his knee during the celebration on the pitch. Japan and Cuba are already in the semifinals, both winning quarterfinals in Tokyo to eliminate Australia and Italy respectively.
With a field down to eight teams, it’s a single-elimination bracket-style tournament with the championship game scheduled for Tuesday, March 21 in Miami.
