and all his fastballs were 100mph+ against Trout. That shows Ohtani was really pumped up in that situation. You won't see Ohtani throwing 4 100mph+ fastballs in a row in midseason.
Guys, I will be honest with you all. I grew up breathing baseball - I mean playing it at the park, watching the pros every night, devouring the box scores in the morning paper, studying all the strategy, the stats, the beautiful history of the Bambino, Teddy Ballgame, Jackie, all the way up to Griffey, Jeter and Chipper in my childhood. Well, I admit I have fallen away. I hate, hate some of these rule changes like the random extra inning base runners. I sigh at the expense of the games, concessions, apparel. I am mad at all the anti-dramatic strikeouts, walks, solo homers and guys not stealing bases and putting the ball in play. I’ve stopped watching a few years back, because I’ve felt they’re trying to turn baseball into something it isn’t supposed to be. Baseball is cerebral: its drama comes not from an overstimulated race against a clock, but rather from one’s imagination of the endless possibilities, the hundreds of parallel strands that just might all somehow weave together. But tonight - Samurai Japan vs. Team USA. Ohtani vs. Trout. How can you not be a romantic, my friend. What a flood of emotion: everything I have ever loved about this beautiful game. Thank you Japan 🇯🇵for your talent, teamwork, selfless play, pure class, and for your legendary hero Shohei Ohtani. Truly deserving. Thank you to 🇺🇸🇲🇽🇨🇺🇵🇷🇻🇪and all the others. Long live this incredible sport and much love to everyone across the globe who got to enjoy a spectacular moment. 🥇⚾️❤️
The fans and the media are solely focused on Ohtani but this game demonstrates how criminally underrated the Japanese baseball league is. Five NPB pitchers combining for one run in 7 innings against this stacked US lineup and two homers coming out of the best sluggers in the Japanese league
Ohtani is an amazing Orval player. USA plays with speed and power. Japan has finesse and fundamentals. Overall an amazing game. I thank all of the Japanese the came to our stadium
Can’t ask for more in the finals: 1. defending champions vs. two-time champions 2. American sluggers vs. Japanese excellent pitchers 3. three-time American League MVP (hitting) vs. American League MVP & two-way player (pitching). Both of them happened to be the captains. Ultimate face-off in the ninth inning. 4. evenly-matched game 2:3 Definitely the supreme classic in WBC history!!
Well said..👏👏👏 As a Canadian, I didn't have a dog in the fight but DAMN.... what a game!! The two best Baseball nations going head to head... pitch for pitch, hit by hit. Outstanding game. Congrats to Japan for the Win, but both teams played AMAZING.
Damn near brings a tear to my eye seeing how many different kinds of people enjoyed this wonderful game. I love professional sports for the pure passion it can bring out.
Hands down the best World Baseball Classic I’ve ever watched-and the most poetically fitting ending to it! Ohtani vs Trout, Captain vs Captain, teammate vs teammate, in a 3-2 thriller!
@@rafaelisslaam1894 You don't seem to understand why Japan has won the WBC 3 out of 5 already. Besides, Japan were missing some of their best players and pitchers too. Japan is better than US at elemination tournament, because of their baseball style. USA won't win even if they had Cole, Scherzer with them. But, if the WBC championship game was like a 7 game World Series style, then USA will do better than Japan. As long as WBC takes the Soccer World Cup style tournament, Japan will always be the favorite team to win.
I have always admired Japanese baseball. Ichiro is the best baseball player I have ever seen. And as a Yankees fan I have great respect for Matsui. Congratulations from the USA.
I clearly rember what Ichiro said at press conference after his retirement match. "Shohei will and must become the best player in the world". 4 years after that, Shohei became the best player in the world by winning WBC, and not only that he cloed the game and got MVP. How can we not be romantic about baseball ?
In Japan, baseball is deeply rooted in the culture and played at every level, from elementary school to college. Even outside of formal teams, kids frequently play catch, and there are countless private clubs for both children and adults, as well as independent leagues. On Sunday mornings, you can see people playing in riverbed baseball grounds. This culture has matured over generations since baseball was imported to Japan about 150 years ago. They all knew the USA was the best baseball country, but dreamed of “someday…” This victory also belongs to those nameless people who have played and loved baseball. It was an absolutely great game made not only by these amazing players but also everyone who have loved this sport, most likely including you. Thank you, everyone.
@@Huyle18 won the championship 3 out of 5 times since WBC began in 2006. That's a huge feat thus far considering no other country including USA won more than once.
First of all, as a Japanese, I would like to thank Mike Trout. I heard he called on his MLB stars to join him in the WBC. That made this tournament even better. He's the leader in all of baseball. It's not easy for a champion to stay champion, but USA continues to prove it can be done. Enjoy this dreamy time a little more, and tomorrow we'll be back to reality... And I am convinced that the MVP of this tournament is Google's translation function.
What a great match! I'm happy not that Japan won but that two great teams from the two countries showed their best performance. It was in the late 70s that I spend my childhood in N.Y., went to public school, collected baseball cards, watched ball games in Yankee Stadium, and played baseball in a little league. Never imagined in those days that I could ever watch such a great game as this one.
In the final showdown, Otani didn't allow Trout's bat to touch the ball and struck out swinging, but the special fight for proud by teammates touched our heartstrings.
Big congratulations japan!!!!! You guys fought hard and deserve the win!! USA will try harder next time but good game!! From USA, Minnesota, much love to yall!
This game, this tournament was the best ever in the WBC. Being from the US, I wanted the win, but if we couldn't do it, I'm glad Japan won. They deserved it. They played better when it counted. For those out there not familiar with the NPB, you should check it out. Great quality BB and I highly recommend going to some games if you're ever in Japan. You won't be disappointed.
Which game have you watched in Japan? I’m just curious 🥰 I am a Tokyo Giants fan…but would love to go to Hiroshima to watch Carp for their intensity 😂 I also want to watch Roki pitch in person ❤
Ohtani is a freak of nature! I still would have given him the MVP last year for his hitting and pitching over 62 HR man Aaron Judge! To hit 34 home runs and 95 RBI AND have a 15-9 pitching record is something that not many have ever been able to accomplish !! 😵💫
This is the greatest modern game I've ever watched. Incredible story line especially with ohtani vs trout right at the end. Watched the replays so many times today but still so exciting to relive this game.
It was a great match. I didn't expect a lot of scoring because it was a match between the top players in the world. Japan held back America's offense well, and in the 9th inning, Ohtani and Trout had a dream showdown. The number of baseball fans will increase all over the world.
Been watching Ohtani for a few years now and he just keeps getting better and better. Absolute poetry in motion watching both his pitching and batting techniques, especially in slomo.
NPB pitchers are just insane. Didn't know they had this much talent. It seems they have a good baseball system. Everyone throwing 95+ with good control. Ohtani great as usual. Congrats to Japan.
In the US 🇺🇸 football 🏈 is the top sports but in Japan 🇯🇵 Baseball ⚾️ is their top passion and sports and now the World Undefeated Champions🏆 for the 3rd time
Adam Jones, who used to play in Japan, mentioned the split as a reason why he struggled in Japan, and I hear that these types of pitches are not used much in mlb, as there are many moving balls.
That Full Count match up between Trout and Ohtani was legendary. Last out last count all set up perfectly for Team USA captain vs Team Japan Captain! Gunna be a super memorable moment for years to come!
I saw all of Ohtani's games in this WBC he hit .435 with 8 RBIs and a 420 foot HR and tied a record 10 walks, and also as a Pitcher went 2-0 with 1.84 ERA and 11 Ks in 9 innings and a save Ohtani MVP ⚾️🏆
Geez what a game. Dream match right there! I hope MLB seriously ramps up this tournament and keeps the support. This is as good as it gets if you're a Baseball fan! Japan, what an amazing team and USA also!
This was an amazing tournament. Seeing teams with little recognition fighting hard in the pool games, and seeing my team Puerto Rico fight hard in this tournament. So much change of events, excitement all around. Truly one of the best WBC all around. Props to Japan for their effort since the beginning of the tournament, they fought hard and their win was well deserved. I will love to see a Puerto Rico vs Japan in the next one. From the land of the Team Rubio, thank you for this amazing sport of Baseball!⚾️🇵🇷
I have watched this over and over again! I still feel the excitement of this game. I have never enjoyed baseball this much until the WBC. Looking forward to 2026!!!
Completely agree. That is why we need to grow this game even further, and MLB has an obligation to do so. For a start, we want to make all exiled players eligible to participate, so that the Cuban national team can have a full squad. We would also like to encourage the participation of ace-level pitchers from MLB teams by giving them some advantages or somehow removing the disadvantages they currently have. If we can improve on just these two points at the next tournament, this classic will grow a lot. Eventually, we want to achieve the same global spread in baseball as in football! I have already learnt my lesson from people saying that baseball is only exciting in North and Central America, the Caribbean and East Asia!
Not even a huge baseball fan, but you gotta love the outcome of this game. Captain verse captain, teammates in the MLB, finishing the series in a 3-2 count. Congrats 🇯🇵
hopefully one day you give teams that aren't on TV a chance. some of the best baseball games I have seen were from people being barely paid and just doing it because they love the sport.
The WBC gives the sport the chance to grow way beyond its current boundaries. I’ve barely any interest in MLB but found myself waking up in UK this morning and wanting to watch the highlights of this immediately!! Hopefully the powers that be realise how powerful this tournament could be for the growth of the sport and give it the chance to become as big as world cups in other sports! Well done Japan and their supporters!!
I love both football and baseball as an ordinary Japanese guy. These two sports are equally entertaining and worth attention. Hope WBC 2023 have boosted international interest in baseball
Congratulations Japan, no doubt, best baseball team. Felicitaciones para el mejor equipo del Clásico. Un abrazo desde Brasil. Best wishes since Brasil.
As an American, great game, period! Congratulations to Japan! You earned it, you deserve it. As well as all other teams who played. This was an incredibly memorable moment in time and our shared history.
@@fredarosado4470 We Japan have a manner of praising the opponent team after the game, but we do not have a culture of cursing the losing team had no luck. The fact that the US ware not be able to win a single game does never mean that the US does no longer have great players. US’s big league is always the role model to achieve some day.
@@fredarosado4470 I disagree, USA didnt even take their best pitchers. They still have the elites in their team, Japan played great n they deserve the win but dont disrespect USA.
What a beautiful moment, I can’t believe we had a 1-run game, 2 out, top of the ninth, full count with the two best players in the world facing off. Congrats to Japan, they earned this-what a moment for baseball!
Shohei's last ball, the sweeper.. It is incredible!! I can just say nothing but WOW. Team Japan. You deserve to win. And Team America. You also well done.
I am from south east asia never played baseball in life. Watched couple of baseball tutorials/rules video in youtube and this was first full game i watched.
Congratulations to Japan! Very talented team! Also, love the discipline they have and the respect they have for their opponents. Very well deserved! That last at bat was epic. Ohtani vs Trout. Man, that was art.
Japón sigue demostrando que tiene el mejor equipo, con mucho talento creo que si tuvieran un equipo en la MLB cada año estarían compitiendo por el campeonato, porque ellos saben jugar béisbol. Mis felicitaciones al equipo de Japón 🎉🎉🎉
No exageres amigo, esto es una selección, es muy diferente a nivel de clubes, unas que otras pudieran estar en post temporada, los clubes de MLB se preparan mucho mejor que la selección, porque es temporada larga
@@carlosperezperez-pu5my en Japón hay una liga profesional similar a la MLB por si no sabías, no es tan popular en América pero existe, y muchos equipos de MLB han casado muchos talentos de allá. Ichiro suzuki, Alfonso Soriano, Matsui, Darvish, Ohtani, Etc
Los japonés entrenan calladitos y no hablan de su rival ni habla mal tampcoo ni tampoco se mantienen d bocones juegan y demuestran quienes son muy humildes esa cultura los lleva siempre al éxito 🎉❤
Gracias Japon y Estados Unidos por esta final... la mejor final en la historia del World Baseball Classic. Vi a Messi vs Mbappe; el duelo de Ohtani vs Trout fue también igual de epico. Dos de los mejores beisbolistas, y compañeros enfrentandose en duelo.
Bro, la semi con México estuvo brutal, era la final adelantada, más con el antecedente que México apaleó a US en el mismo clásico. México merecía esa final contra Japón no EU
What a fitting ending Ohtani vs Trout, 2 captains of their teams and teammates on the Angels. Glad for Ohtani to finish it, he is a generational talent and so fun to watch whether hitting or pitching.
It was a moment when not only Japanese baseball but also the baseball world took a step forward. Thank you for all the elements of the WBC: the spirit of respect, the passion for the game shown by the fans and players, and the inspiring drama that awaited at the end. Big congratulations to all the teams. With love, respect and blessings from Japan🇯🇵.
Congratulations Japan!🇯🇵 Thank you America!🇺🇸 I thank and admire the two nations. And in the last round, I was moved to tears when I saw Otani and Trout, the aces who are active in the same team, fighting. As baseball powerhouses, I am happy that the United States and Japan were able to play in the finals. Thank you again! A friend for life! And rivals! I love America!🇺🇸❤🇯🇵
a great baseball game to me is like this, when the number of runs are low because both are fighting so hard. I love watching baseball games like this. congrats to japan!

Japan！Best in the world！congratulation！Impressed！amazing！Best！wonderful！ Winning the MLB star-studded United States in the finals and being number one in the world is truly amazing！ Through this tournament, I was able to realize once again the fun and charm of the sport of baseball！
Dude, My love for baseball is finally returning. It's just amazing seeing people around the world rally around a sport they love. Be it baseball, soccer, American football or ect. It's just amazing to see.
WBC has rekindled my love for this sport. I've watched more of these games than I do a full season or playoffs or World Series. There were so many amazing teams. The tremendous love that the players have shown not only for their nations, but for their teammates and the game! The crowds....OMG the crowds on both sides of the world have been AMAZING!! I cheered for every K and every hit regardless of the team. This tournament has kind of re-introduced my joy for baseball.
El béisbol es el deporte más apasionante dél mundo si hablamos de jugar yo amo el béisbol el béisbol siempre se juega con el corazón a comparación de fútbol él fútbol es apasionante pero los hinchas lo arruinaron por tantas peleas y eso no se le puede llamar pasión cuando la pasión es esta que juegan con el alma
Thank you Ohtani for proving to the baseball world “Dream big, and go for it!!” So glad you really did it, winning the MVP and most importantly, the championship!! I bet not just the people there in Japan, many fans in other countries are happy to see that baseball can be so much fun! You rock!! Congratulations!!
I Agree, that's why Ohtani is the best Baseball player on the planet, he can win on the mound and win at the plate ⚾️ I saw all of his games in this WBC Ohtani hit .435 with 8 RBIs with a 420 foot HR and tied a record 10 walks, and also as a Pitcher went 2-0 with 1.84 ERA and 11 Ks in 9 innings Ohtani MVP

@@badcornflakes6374 My personal opinion: PR boiii, the win would mean so much to us after all our island has been through in its history; All that win mean is, "we are here (our presence in the world), we are strong, we are Borinquen from now to the next life" however, root for who ever doesn't get knocked out first in your case lolol
Huge Respect for 🇺🇸 USA and 🇯🇵 Japan, as a Baseball fan I am very happy to witness the 2023 World Baseball Classic. Congratulations 🇯🇵 Samurai Japan. Watching from the 🇵🇭 Philippines.
Suddenly this game popped up and was intrigued to watch again. As Japanese, I really appreciate US and Japan have healthy relationship in baseball. I would hope to go the same with other fields as well! 🇯🇵🇺🇸
As an American. I appreciate Japan and what they are doing to the sport with Shohei. 🇯🇵 is literally saving the sport. It is dying in America. Thank you for keeping it alive and helping to spread it across the world. No matter the issues our two nations may have. We will always share baseball
@@ああ-j8d7k In 2009, Ichiro said, "Let's play baseball that makes people think we can't catch up 30 years from now." 14 years have passed since then. It will be another 16 years to catch up. However, in international sports in Korea, there are too many rough plays due to the obsession with winning or losing. It may take another 5,000 years for Korea to learn the spirit of fair play. Fightin' lol

No it won’t
@@hyattglobalist9848 We japanese have great respect for MLB.
We have always followed The US baseball
You might be right. I hate baseball but the world series was awesome.
Been watching Ohtani for a few years now and he just keeps getting better and better. Absolute poetry in motion watching both his pitching and batting techniques, especially in slomo.
NPB pitchers are just insane. Didn't know they had this much talent. It seems they have a good baseball system. Everyone throwing 95+ with good control. Ohtani great as usual. Congrats to Japan.
NPBの投手陣が凄いのは日頃分かってましたが、日本人の自分もアメリカの強打者を２点に抑えたのはびっくりです😮
Baseball is no 1 sport in Japan
Baseball is no 4 or 5 in USA
@@avgGamer662 football, basketball then baseball. All other sports aren't even half as popular as baseball in America.
In the US 🇺🇸 football 🏈 is the top sports but in Japan 🇯🇵 Baseball ⚾️ is their top passion and sports and now the World Undefeated Champions🏆 for the 3rd time
Adam Jones, who used to play in Japan, mentioned the split as a reason why he struggled in Japan, and I hear that these types of pitches are not used much in mlb, as there are many moving balls.
I was watching this thinking, "There's no way it's actually going to end with Trout vs Ohtani"
What a game. What a tournament. Can't wait for 2026!
USA players are no longer the best in the world

@user-hs8dk7ck3e Do you know how many Japanese didn't play?
That Full Count match up between Trout and Ohtani was legendary. Last out last count all set up perfectly for Team USA captain vs Team Japan Captain! Gunna be a super memorable moment for years to come!
Seeing two best countries in the world play against each other is enjoyable!
I saw all of Ohtani's games in this WBC he hit .435 with 8 RBIs and a 420 foot HR and tied a record 10 walks, and also as a Pitcher went 2-0 with 1.84 ERA and 11 Ks in 9 innings and a save Ohtani MVP ⚾️🏆
Just amazing isn't it? I definitely prefer Japanese baseball methods over our own, they seem to work alot better.
歴史的な試合でした。両チームのすべての選手が、高いレベルの素晴らしい仕事をしていました。
こんな試合を生きている間に見ることが出来て幸せです 🇺🇸 🇯🇵
As an American 🇺🇸 I’m just glad we made it to the finals and had a great game. Didn’t win but it was entertaining to watch
The photo 🤣🤣
I feel kind of the same way, glad we lost, glad it was a close game, glad it was Japan we lost to.
As a sport primarily played by Americans and dominated by Americans, you should of won easily. This is like Canada losing at hockey to Japan lmao
So true!

As an American, thank you Japan for an amazing match. Much love from America
Geez what a game. Dream match right there! I hope MLB seriously ramps up this tournament and keeps the support. This is as good as it gets if you're a Baseball fan! Japan, what an amazing team and USA also!
This was an amazing tournament. Seeing teams with little recognition fighting hard in the pool games, and seeing my team Puerto Rico fight hard in this tournament. So much change of events, excitement all around. Truly one of the best WBC all around. Props to Japan for their effort since the beginning of the tournament, they fought hard and their win was well deserved. I will love to see a Puerto Rico vs Japan in the next one. From the land of the Team Rubio, thank you for this amazing sport of Baseball!⚾️🇵🇷

I have watched this over and over again! I still feel the excitement of this game. I have never enjoyed baseball this much until the WBC. Looking forward to 2026!!!
Completely agree. That is why we need to grow this game even further, and MLB has an obligation to do so.
For a start, we want to make all exiled players eligible to participate, so that the Cuban national team can have a full squad. We would also like to encourage the participation of ace-level pitchers from MLB teams by giving them some advantages or somehow removing the disadvantages they currently have.
If we can improve on just these two points at the next tournament, this classic will grow a lot.
Eventually, we want to achieve the same global spread in baseball as in football!
I have already learnt my lesson from people saying that baseball is only exciting in North and Central America, the Caribbean and East Asia!
恭喜日本！日本這場獲勝後，自 2009 年經典賽後，再度拿到經典賽冠軍，也是隊史第三座冠軍
Not even a huge baseball fan, but you gotta love the outcome of this game. Captain verse captain, teammates in the MLB, finishing the series in a 3-2 count. Congrats 🇯🇵
Exactly. And the commentators at 10:50 also added to it.
Mia Taylor and Yuu Takasaki also feeling nervous when Ohtani was on full count against Trout.
Awesome, hey! I'm from Aus and am really getting into the baseball culture vlogs. Similar sport to cricket! Strong bowling and hitting...
@@tybaltyrant1What team do you like?
hopefully one day you give teams that aren't on TV a chance. some of the best baseball games I have seen were from people being barely paid and just doing it because they love the sport.
The WBC gives the sport the chance to grow way beyond its current boundaries. I’ve barely any interest in MLB but found myself waking up in UK this morning and wanting to watch the highlights of this immediately!! Hopefully the powers that be realise how powerful this tournament could be for the growth of the sport and give it the chance to become as big as world cups in other sports! Well done Japan and their supporters!!
Baseball deserves a lot of recognition
I love both football and baseball as an ordinary Japanese guy. These two sports are equally entertaining and worth attention. Hope WBC 2023 have boosted international interest in baseball
史上最強の侍ジャパンでしたね。3年後にはどんな選手が選出されるか楽しみです。

We Japan have a manner of praising the opponent team after the game, but we do not have a culture of cursing the losing team had no luck.
