The 2023 World Baseball Classic will take place March 8th to March 21st. The teams are split into four groups (pools) and the first round will take place in four locations.
The top two teams from each group will advance to the quarterfinals, and from there four teams will remain where the championship game and runner-up game will take place. Here is a breakdown of the groups and teams as I see it.
