The World Baseball Classic (WBC) finished its 20-day journey, Tuesday, with fans of the sport happy after a near three-weeks worth of enjoyment of the art of the small white ball. Korean and Japanese fans were particularly ``blessed,'' having had five rival games on which to feast during the event.
And, following the two Asian nations' magnificent rise to the summit of the Classic, the Korean team was given more reason for cheer: The WBC announced its all-star tournament team after the final match ― and four of its number were included. They were first baseman Kim Tae-kyun, third baseman Lee Bum-ho, designated hitter Kim Hyun-soo, who played outfielder, and pitcher Bong Jung-keun.
Kim Tae-kyun was selected unanimously along with Cuban outfielder Frederich Cepeda. He claimed top spot in RBIs, earning 11 and shared the top spot in homers with three. He was also called ``terminator Kim,'' because he hit when the team needed it.
Nice Game, man it was... we lost... but the thing is that they did their best to win the game, i am so proud of them, are you?
