On the 5th at the Tokyo Dome in Japan, the World Baseball Classic (WBC) Group C group stage game between Korea and the Czech Republic was held.
Korea started So Hyung-jun, and the Czech Republic started Danielle Padysak as the starting pitcher.
Korea, which reached the semifinals in 2006 and finished runner-up in 2009, failed to advance to the quarterfinal knockout stage in all three subsequent tournaments (2013, 2017, 2023). In this tournament, it is aiming to reach the main knockout stage for the first time in 17 years.
