On the 5th at the Tokyo Dome in Japan, the World Baseball Classic (WBC) group stage Group C game between Korea and the Czech Republic was held.
Korea started So Hyeong-jun, and the Czech Republic started Danielle Padysak.
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 is aiming to reach the main tournament for the first time in 17 years.
With one out in the bottom of the third, Korea's Shay Whitcomb hit a solo home run to left and is celebrating at home with teammates. Mar. 5, 2026
