From Aaron Judge's homer on his first swing of the tournament to Brice Turang's four RBIs out of the No. 9 slot, Team USA's lineup delivered from top to bottom in a Classic-opening rout.
Great Britain's home run celebration for the World Baseball Classic is fit to guard the king. After Harry Ford went deep against Mexico, he donned the red coat and (faux) bearskin hat of the soldiers who stand guard outside Buckingham Palace.
At an age when a lot of young men are worried about their homework or who to ask to the prom, Joseph Contreras had to pitch to a three-time MVP with the bases loaded.
Other than the fact that he swings left-handed, Angels prospect Lucas Ramirez sure looked a lot like his dad Manny with two homers in the World Baseball Classic, including a leadoff shot.
While the projections may think teams are lacking in certain areas, it could also just be an opportunity for someone to step forward and surpass expectations.
