Tuesday night we saw two powerhouse teams go head to head in the World Baseball Classic Final as Team USA and Team Venezuela squared off to see who could call themselves best in the world. Team USA was always going to be a juggernaut, but Venezuela beat out several other teams that were predicted to do better in the series. It shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise, though, considering the dominant talent that has come out of Venezuela for decades.<\/p>\n
In the winner-take-all final, it was ultimately Team Venezuela that came out the champions. The final score was 3-2. Bryce Harper made a valiant effort to tie the game in late innings, but it wasn\u2019t enough to keep Venezuela down. This is Venezuela\u2019s first WBC championship.<\/p>\n
With the WBC now finished, focus will return to the final weeks of Spring Training as teams gear up for Opening Day and the dawning of the new MLB season.<\/p>\n
