On the 5th at Tokyo Dome in Japan, the World Baseball Classic (WBC) Group C pool game between Korea and the Czech Republic was held.
Korea started So Hyeong-jun, and the Czech Republic started Danielle Padisak.
Korea, which reached the semifinals in 2006 and finished runner-up in 2009, failed to advance to the quarterfinal tournament in all three subsequent tournaments (2013, 2017, 2023). In this tournament, it seeks to advance to the main tournament for the first time in 17 years.
In the bottom of the seventh with no outs and a runner on second, Korea's Moon Bo-gyeong avoids an inside pitch from the Czech Republic's Ercoli. Mar. 5, 2026
