Yo I actually didn't know that the WBC was a thing until this year! Too bad U.S.A lost tho.

It's becoming more popular. The U.S. doesn't care much, but it's bigger in other countries.

Not sure if this was intended but Taiwan doesn't seem to show up?

This is fixed now. Taiwan has never appeared in the top 4. I misread the 2013 tournament page on Wikipedia, thinking that the host nations were the top 4 teams.

Sorry about the stats reset.

Practically all of the Dutch players are actually Aruban or Curaçaoan but they play for the Netherlands since they’re Dutch colonies.

I was rooting for Italy. The USA team didn’t look like they were having fun. They were being too serious and not looking like they were having a good time. I mean, comparatively look at Venezuela, they were jumping and dancing in the dugout before every game and everyone was smiling the whole time! Lighten up, US!

It's also in stark contrast to the various gold medal winning USA Olympic hockey teams. Those guys and gals have fun and play their hearts out. Not even close to the same passion from the baseball guys unfortunately.

If "DR" is accepted then maybe also accept "PR" for Puerto Rico

Answer stats say the US made it 5 times, but it's actually only 4, unless the quiz itself is wrong.

The official name on mlb.com for team South Korea is Korea, maybe add that as a type-in?
