World Baseball Championship Pool Play Update

We've only been playing baseball for four days but already a host of storylines have emerged. The host country, South Korea, is off to a 3-0 start and got a massive performance from their ace, Soo-Keun Bae, in their first game. They are tied with Puerto Rico for the Pool A lead.

The United States shook off a surprising day 1 loss to Germany to win the next three and they sit tied with the Germans at 3-1 atop Pool B. Third baseman Sawyer Hart has had a nice month packed into four games, and the USA leads the WBC in home runs so far.

The Dominican Republic team beat Cuba in an extra-innings thriller, the best game of day 1, and they've cruised since then. They're 3-0 and have allowed just four runs. This complete shutout by Angel Varela definitely helped.
