This whole tournament has been beyond playoff atmosphere. These players really came out to ball. It’s like watching a World Series game every game. Crazy… wish this is played every year
More like watching a REAL "world" series
But then it wouldn't be as special if it was yearly, the fact it's every 4 years makes it rare and special
lol welcome to a world cup
@@Clancysway and since it was like 6 years this time this one was a super rare and special one
It's crazy how America is the only country that doesn't take this tournament seriously. World Series gets peanuts viewership compared to this. Every big name import player we get thinks the Classic is more important than a world series. Japan sends its highest-paid players whose contracts dwarf ours. This is peak baseball.
I almost teared up when hearing the story about the guy’s mom passing while he was in spring training and waiting to get his former teammate to sign the pic of him meeting him at second base when he got called up.
They’re teammates now on the Brewers, that’s why he wants it signed
No way that actually almost made you cry 😅
@@bgcards3917 two of my favorite l players. The stadium chants “Rowdy” whenever he is at bat, it’s great.
As a huge Blue Jays fan I remember it well.

"If I had to pay half a million to play today, I would."
That right there says everything that needs to be said about what this tournament really means. The only thing that could make it better is to play series for the championship instead of single games. But we've come a long way so far. The future of international baseball looks awesome!!
The Win or Go Home, Single Game format is awesome to be honest. Makes the game way more exciting.
I do see the charm of having a series but ultimately I'll leave it in the Club Game instead of National Teams.
We need more mic'd up moments like this. It can do nothing but help baseball.
@@larrydanadavid2435👆🤓
@@larrydanadavid2435 yes it does, viewership has been on the decline for years.
@@larrydanadavid2435 The league and franchises that have to pay multi million dollar salaries per player probably care lmao
@@larrydanadavid2435 but we can recognize that you can't lose viewership indefinitely, right? that's what all these rules changes are about -- to try and increase baserunners (particularly singles) and shorten games (both efforts to make the game more exciting and bring in more viewers).
viewership down about 1% per year for the last 15 years. not a great trend.
the sport itself doesn't need our help; but professional sport leagues absolutely need viewers, or they will fold. leagues have folded before (even in baseball). i get your point which seems to be 'settle down this is nothing new', and i mostly agree. but owners won't continue to leverage money without return on investment.
@@larrydanadavid2435
Weird argument you’re making here. One person is arguing that this would benefit the game by bringing more viewers. More viewers means more ad revenue. It means more money for the players. It means more kids wanting to play baseball, and the pool of talent growing, which will make the quality of games even better. But you’re arguing that none of that matters because YOU like watching it. Haha what?
The Olympics removing baseball has lead to something great.
EDIT:
To all these people out here saying, "bUt It Is An OlYmPiC sPoRt"... it was the decision to drop baseball that made the WBC so popular.
"Modeled after the FIFA World Cup and organized in large part as a response to the International Olympic Committee's decision to remove baseball as an Olympic sport in 2005, the WBC has grown into a major sporting event worldwide. The final series in 2006 and 2009 rank among the highest-rated sporting events in Japanese television history." - WIKI
It coming back in 2028 in Los Angeles
La participación de México fue un desastre hace 2 años en Olimpiadas
All the talk is about it coming back. Harper is really pushing hard for it
@@rwb2011 we do not care. It's going to be a bunch of amateurs anyway.
@@JoeKyser it already came back in the last Olympics
What Nelson Cruz said about “this is real baseball” he couldn’t have said it better.
“That’s middle-of-the-mall stuff.”
Rowdy Tellez is funny af 😂
riff raff reference lol
@@meya3521 but luckily it came from a real one from H town in P Wall.
Man Rowdy really opened up there. I'm a jays fan and had no idea about that heartfelt story. What a moment, loved that guy when he was with the Jays
Rowdy Tellez seems so cool
seems that he's that kind of guy that you want to make a friendship
The WBC should be at least every 2-3 years! so much fun to watch.
Its every 3 years, hopefully 2yr soon
@@frankgonzales8340 You couldn’t possibly be more wrong!
It’s every 4 years!
@@travelingman5146it’s every 3 years dude lol
Does Trout have a nickname? Cause just saying "trout" is weird. Not "Mikey" because he's too big for that 🤣🤣🤣
I call him Mikey when he's at bat. I'm 39 lol
That got me good 😂. He's been a diehard Philly fan all his life, so I love when he comes back for Eagles or Sixers games, but saying "Hey there's Trout!" truly is strange. Dude needs a nickname - I just say his full name every time.
"Steve", as in "Steve Rogers"
Michael
I call him “Fishman”
Both comforting and humbling to see your heroes are just humans, too. Love these mic'd up moments
Heros? No. Humans, always, yes.
@@Frankincensedjb123 you don't know the meaning of hero?
"" HERO - a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.""
@@LFNZE Frankincensed out here thinking theyre not heroes because they have no special powers 😂
@@alobravo7889 He be thinking hero = having superpowers. Those are SUPERheroes. He must be 10 years old or something lol
“This Johnny dang baby, shout out pall wall” riff raff punching the air rn 😂
I don't if it's cause I'm old , but I didn't understand any of that . 🤷♂️
So dope
@@jch8376 Johnny Dang is a jeweler from Houston who made grillz popular to rappers like Paul Wall
Team Mexico getting real with themselves in the dugout
Pete telling Waino, "I'm not gonna lie I see it pretty well" kills me
Alonso telling Waino he sees his stuff pretty well got me in the feels bro. You know Adam is gonna go out there in their next game and show him something special
Nah Waino knows hes on the downswing of his career when Pete started getting into his prime. He knows if they were both in their primes, it would be a great battle.
As a mexican, futbol is my life, and here in Monterrey NFL is almost the second most followed sport. We used to be baseball for life before futbol, but I was never interested in it. Watching the WBC has me HOOKED, I want more baseball now🫡 it’s growing on me just like basketball did
pura liga mitras papa
I definitely read that first sentence as if you were Danny on Ted lasso
Half "mexicans" on the national team don't speak spainsh compared to Puerto Rico nd Dominican republic 😅 no Sabo kids on that team
Caile a los Sultanes mijo
@@RobCabreraCh les voy a caer el domingo
Wainwright mic’d up, being interviewed, broadcasting, etc is such a pleasure. Humble, insightful, honest, confident without being cocky..oh and being a legendary Cardinal -
El mejor escenario del baseball. Por favor nunca dejen morir el clásico. Esto es mejor que una World Series!
Amen!
Es más deberían de hacerlo cada año o tal vez cada 2 años
It’s the real World Series
@@andybatista4606 yo siento que debería ser cada 2 años pa que uno tenga ganas de verlo y sea algo más grande porque cada año sería mucho y rápido pero cada dos hay tiempo entremedio y vale la penar ganar mas ancias yo creo
@@williamarroyo1497 No manito, el hecho de esperar los 4 años es lo que también le agrega un toque especial.
I have enjoyed this WBC more than the last 10 years of MLB baseball!
Rowdy Tellez is a gift from Baseball God.
Funniest thing is hearing Vinny Castilla in his late 40s calling others Dawg 😅
That mf in his mid 50’s that’s funny asf 😂😂
150K profit dawg
Thats the beauty of spanish ppl we dont follow the "you're to old for this or that"
Whoa, what Rowdy said about Chad Johnson is real. I remember watching a show, where OchoCinco would go to Claires to buy all his earrings and he turned to the camera and said, "Just because you got money, don't mean you need to spend it." I think about that all the time for some reason hahah
Na this lets you know these guys are still kids, loving the game without the pressure. Love this
Team Mexico was the most interesting and exciting team to watch. All the players had that “special” about them. Really deserved to be champs. But we are so proud of our boys.
Team Mexico!!!
And it will be better next time, hugs for all the baseball lovers around the world. Greets from Santo Domingo 🇩🇴
Rowdy is just one of those guys you just gotta love
I never knew Wainwright was this hilarious. On the mound he gives off stiff professor vibes.
Just wait until he gets in a booth or MLB Network next year. I think he may be the Charles Barkely of baseball.
another team talk about the game
meanwhile the mexico player: look at my drip from johnny dang and my richard mille watch
the classic was amazing. shout out to all the teams and their fans. made me love baseball again. everyone won!
"If you're rich, everyone thinks it's real"
the WBC is a festive game，that can make every player have a good memory
Rowdy is hilarious!🤣
Rowdy Tellez is great. What an awesome compilation, we need more of this!!
This tournament was the best couple weeks of baseball ever! The different crowd cultures were incredible! Can’t wait for the next one!
Just some dudes from different parts of the word who have a shared love for the greatest game enjoying some unforgettable moments
Better than the MLB playoffs and the World Series. Something about guys representing their countries that brings out something extra in them. If you love baseball, it doesn’t getter any better than this.
Go U.S.A.!
MLB feature your players more like this, the interactions and stories are what make fans like them more.
If regular season MLB had half the energy that these games have had, a 162-game season would feel too short.
As a Brewers fan, I am so thankful we acquired Rowdy...he's an amazing human!
Actively change channels when baseballs on most of the time, but this WBC tournament is awesome! There’s nothing better than country vs country, that’s why the World Cup is the best. This has a little spark of that and I love it
I’m a football(soccer) fan, however this WBC gave me so much joy to watch. What a beautiful sport.
As a boricua I'm proud of my latino mexican brothers, hurt, but proud...ufc and car race? Proud of you... keep it going for all my latinos
You could show the dugout for the entire game and it would still be entertaining.
What a great tournament it has been. USA vs Mexico was great, Mexico vs Puerto Rico was insane, Puerto Rico vs Dominican Republic was cool, and and the Chinese Taipei crowd is soooo so cool.
Plus tonight game Mexico vs Japan could be epic, especially in Mexico. Talk about growing the game a Mexico win and baseball has the total attention of all of Mexico.
We miss you in Toronto, Rowdy!
Some of the best baseball I've seen in a while.
This year's WBC was awesome!!! To have the chance to see Ohtani pitch against Trout was an AMAZING cherry on top 😮
haha Tellez is so wholesome.
Don't give up. No sé rindan México México México. Hasta la victoria siempre. Con mentalidad positiva y con ánimo al %100
Mexico tuvo un equipo bueno este ano. Saludos y felicidades desde Puerto Rico.
The WBC was so much fun to watch the atmosphere and passion excedes all!! Love it!!
i want more of this, we need more of this
I enjoyed every second of this video 👍 good job 👏 🇲🇽
Waino needs to have a long sit down with Rowdy Tellez. I'd watch that.
I love this so much. And I’m so hyped for the 2023 season even more now!!
LOVE Telez talking about his time in Toronto. That was incredible! A debut I'll never forget.
Waino miked up is an absolute gem
baseball fans now have felt what it’s like for soccer, cricket and rugby fans during each sport’s world cup. it’s crazy man. it transcends any pro sports playoff atmosphere.
it’s like NCAA college basketball x1000. your sport on a global stage, players playing not for money, and not primarily for prestige but for YOUR COUNTRY, for your friends and family.
it can be glorious, it can be heartbreaking.
Adam Wainwright telling Pete Alonso that he's a great hitter must have been a cool moment for him.
NFL fan here . They need more micd up in all baseball games.. been watching baseball since the world series in November 2022.. better late the never . 👍💪👊👊😎.. awesome games thru out this tournament...
WBC was so good this year, the energy was amazing. I forgot all about March Madness tbh😂
Never been a big baseball fan, but now my son has started playing teeball and I feel like we became a baseball family at the right time😂🎉
0:16 After some website reserch, I actually find Mike Trout's nickname. It says "The Millville Meteor"😂😂😂
DR saying they would play half a million for that game because that was truly baseball was iconic.
PR and DR even tho we go at each other at game time, the player move between themselves is an example of how a rivalry should be
This is way baseball players are the best mic’s up. We need more moments like this.
Rowdy really doesn't like jewelry huh? Lol
WBC was amazing to watch. I'd get off work and get ready for the series. Enjoyed it more than the most the regular season, not lying. Please keep this up and more games in the US. I'm ready to travel for the next one already. Peace.
I am kind of shocked how good the wbc was, glad I randomly watched a few games, I have so much access to baseball where I am at, spring training, fall league, mlb season, and wbc, I take it for granted, but wbc really has something going. Frankly I would rather watch wbc at home than fight parking at spring training games. Keep it going, baseball is global and wbc is a great venue to show this. Although I cannot figure out what makes one eligible to play for a particular nation. I think I could play for one of 6 nations from what I gather???? Great tournament, congrats to Japan, and Othani is already a legend...wow.
You need a passport (be a citizen) from the country you want to play for
@@comostuvo2 So Austin Barnes has a MX passport? Verdugo? My guess is no. It takes months and you would have to skip hoardes of paperwork to speed it up. And no way they are going to be denied a roster spot on MX unless they have a passport. A passport does not make you a citizen. You have privilege of holding passport based on citizenship. I still think there is no criteria in writing. If you know where it is at, let me know. 👍
"Came into spring training last year and after one week I knew Paul Goldschmidt was going to win the MVP."
"It was that obvious?"
"it was that obvious."
wow
The English translation of “esta duro el viejito hoy” could’ve gone very bad 😂
A mic'd up season of world baseball classic is what the world needs right now. No MLB pitch timers, no "I'm going to wait 50 minutes at bat because I'm getting paid" no. Just classic "I want to destroy the other team" sandlot baseball. Love it.
The true World Series! I can't wait until more of us Americans begin to realize it! So much fun!
I love baseball in general, in the Olympics, or the WBC!! ⚾️⚾️
More stuff like this please ❤
Man this looks like it would be so much fun.
“JOHNNY DANG BABY! SHOUTOUT PAUL WALL!” 😂😂
The camaraderie is great. I wonder if MLB would ever consider the handshake line (like the NHL) after the conclusion of a big game or series?
1:10 J.T. Realmuto's logic is crazy but is kind of logical. Even Wainwright who's been pitching forever understands it kind of makes sense.
Polar Bear always funny 😂. That’s my Captain! LGM
Love it. And loving that some of the minors are taking advantage of the call up
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS TOURNAMENT!!! WAY BETTER THAN THE WS
Wbc with MLB players has been the best baseball in a decade. Don't get rid of it please
Next time will be bigger the DR and PR wanting to make a comeback so bad watch 😁 can't wait
Did this video just make me love Rowdy Tellez?! Yes, yes it did.
mj melendez being so excited to play in the wbc is great. wholesome stuff.
this is so feel - good. baseball brings us together
Baseball's the best.
It really is !
10/10 adorable, please more, I love
Would be nice to see the players in the Japan and Taiwan games mic'd up, see how the players from the Asian and non-traditional baseball countries get along.
they’re pretty boring actually, very formal and reserved
Waino out there like the dad trying to fit in with all the kids. lmao. Go Cards.
This is GOLD
Tellez is the show
I love hearing players love their teammates, their opponents, and the game. These lads deserve the world ❤
That looks like so much fun
Great WBC!! World Baseball
gotta love it ⚾️
Big dog Rowdy Tellez Go Brewers
This was awesome
1:29 When you love the game
More mics and the MLB should have option to see the game from the Catchers POV
Only an American sport could have an athlete who says you confused me with someone who works out.
