When does Team USA play in the World Baseball Classic? Here are the dates and times

The World Baseball Classic is right around the corner, and Team USA is looking to avenge their loss to Team Japan in the finals.

Team Japan beat Team USA 3-2 in thrilling fashion to win in 2023, when Shohei Ohtani struck out Mike Trout in an electric battle to end the game. Ohtani and Trout were teammates on the Los Angeles Angels at the time of the game.

The tournament begins on Wednesday, March 4, but Team USA does not play until Friday night. New York Yankees superstar Aaron Judge is Team USA's captain.
