Going to WBC in Miami tomorrow
My dad and I went to the first round pool in Orlando in 2006 and this year we're going to the 2nd round in Miami. Really stoked to see DR against the US

i'd definitely recommend it. We had a lot of fun in 2006 and that bracket was burdened with the terrible Australia and Italy teams, although we did have DR and Venezuela. It's just that the fans are passionate, because you're getting patriotic people and real baseball fans. There are very few casual fans, so it makes for a fun environment for baseball fans. For 2017 we're thinking it'd be cool to go to the bracket in Tokyo

I wish they would put games on more than MLBN, since my carrier doesn't have it.  They need to put some of the US games on tv nationally on Fox or something. It seems like no one in the US knows about it.

yeah you're right, awareness in the US is lacking. it's really unfortunate because the tournament is a ton of fun

Sounds like a job for Fox Sports 1 (currently Speed). MLBN will be fine with all of the Spring Training games available for broadcast.
