On the 9th at the Tokyo Dome in Japan, the World Baseball Classic (WBC) group stage Group C game between Korea and Australia was held.

In Group C, Japan secured first place in the group with three wins and advanced to the quarterfinals. Australia is 2-1, Taiwan is 2-2, Korea is 1-2, and the Czech Republic is 0-3.

For Korea's WBC national team to advance to the quarterfinals, it must allow two runs or fewer against Australia and win by at least five runs.

With two outs and a runner on second in the top of the fifth, Korea's Moon Bo-gyeong hits a timely RBI to left and celebrates. Mar. 9, 2026
