RE: World Baseball Classic has had some very strange (and tense) games

I feel the same — this World Baseball Classic has me completely hooked. I honestly haven’t been this into baseball in years. The USA vs Italy game shocked me, and all those tiebreaker scenarios made every inning feel intense, even when my team wasn’t playing. That Korea vs Australia moment was painful to watch. I’ve been following it all on Fox Sports, and at one point I even caught myself searching for the fox sports customer service phone number when I had a stream issue.

same over here. I struggle to remain interested in MLB even during the playoffs because there are just too many games. When every game is a one-off like it is in WBC, every single pitch counts. It's hard to feel the same way during the pro baseball season because there are 200 games and a "best of 7" series is great for making money and forcing people to watch commercials, but it just doesn't have that exciting edge where you know that if the guys don't perform well RIGHT NOW, everything is over.
