 Haven't seen this until now (I mostly stick to the DoveNET Sports section), but the WBC this year seemed to be pretty  much all about Shohei Ohtani, in the best way.

 I don't know if it did much for interest in the US, but it was definitely good to see more American stars take the
 thing more seriously. The highminded side of me is just glad that there's interest and parity, but the human
 side would really like to see Team USA get out there and kick ass more often.


 I couldn't agree more about Ohtani, though. Maybe he should follow in Ichiro's footsteps and make his name in Seattle?
