USA UPSET by Venezuela in World Baseball Classic Championship Behind Eduardo Rodriguez’s GEM
Description
The World Baseball Classic delivered an all-time classic in the championship game, as Team Venezuela stunned Team USA with a 3–2 victory to capture its first-ever gold medal. We break down Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez’s dominant outing against a stacked U.S. lineup and discuss why Team USA’s offense completely disappeared in the tournament’s final two games. Venezuela sealed the win with a dramatic ninth-inning go-ahead double before shutting the door in the bottom half to make history. We also discuss why the World Baseball Classic continues to prove it’s one of the best things to ever happen to baseball, bringing unforgettable moments and international passion to the sport. Plus, we have updates from Diamondbacks Spring Training, our favorite new additions revealed at the What’s New at Chase Field event, and the one D-backs championship team group chat we absolutely need to be added to.
