The 5th WBC final. Japan, led by Shohei Ohtani, defeated the United States and became the world champion for the third time in 14 years. Following the dramatic come-from-behind walk-off win against Mexico in the semi-finals the day before, Ohtani pitched in relief in the final inning. He struck out his Angels teammate Mike Trout and was the pitcher to be hoisted on the shoulders of the crowd. The dramatic developments on the internet, which continued for two consecutive nights, generated amazement, with comments such as "What an incredible baseball game!" "More drama than a drama" "An ending like a movie" "The best WBC in history" and "They showed the world a show." Ohtani, who played in all seven games, was a great hitter, with 10 hits, including hits in all games, 1 home run, and 8 RBIs, for a batting average of .435, an on-base percentage of .606, and an OPS of 1.345. Furthermore, as a pitcher, he pitched in three games, pitching the most innings of 9.2 innings, with 2 wins and 1 save. He recorded an overwhelming record of 5 hits, 2 runs allowed, 11 strikeouts, an ERA of 1.86, and a WHIP of 0.72. Otani, who contributed to the team's victory with a full rotation of pitching and batting, was also selected as the tournament MVP and Best Nine, and has received generous praise from all over the world. ---------------------------------------------If you enjoyed watching this video, please press the GOOD button.
