Jack Hughes sends Team USA baseball players 'fire-up message' before WBC quarterfinal vs Canada

With another Team USA versus Team Canada matchup slated in major sports, Jack Hughes felt it was the perfect time to offer some encouragement. 

Team USA remained alive in the World Baseball Classic (WBC) thanks to Italy’s dominant win over Mexico on Wednesday night to finish undefeated in Pool B play in Houston, Texas. 

After breathing a sigh of relief, the U.S. looked at the schedule and saw a familiar opponent in terms of national competition – Canada and their Pool A-winning squad that went 3-1 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
