World Baseball Classic

The World Baseball Classic (WBC) is an international baseball tournament sanctioned from 2006 to 2013 by the International Baseball Federation (IBAF) and after 2013 by the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC). It featured the national teams of countries in which baseball is a popular sport.

The tournament was created in order to further spread the popularity of the sport of baseball around the world, as well as to serve as a crowning achievement for the sport’s greatest amateurs. The WBC began in 2006, and was held every four years. The last WBC ran from March 2 to 19, 2009.

Team USA made its debut in the 2009 WBC, and has participated in all five iterations of the tournament. The 2017 classic was particularly special for Team USA, as it marked the first time that the team had won the WBC title.

Team USA has a long and successful history in the Olympic Games. They have won a total of 25 medals, including nine gold medals. Most recently, they won the gold medal in the 2000 Sydney Olympics. They also won bronze in the 2004 Athens Olympics and silver in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
