This game is like a Game 7 of a playoff series. Without a doubt, this international competition has been really entertaining, despite an ugly scene yesterday in Chase Field where Canada and Mexico couldn't settle things in baseball's traditional ways.
Canada will try to bring that fire into this game, but without the violence and the drama, as they look to defeat the U.S. in the first round of the 2013 WBC.
Team USA is on the brink of advancing to the second round, but they are also on the brink of embarrassment if they are exited in the first round of competition. The powerhouse comes into the WBC ranked second in the world only behind Cuba and a spot ahead of the dynamic Japanese team.
Check out as Derek Holland of the Texas Rangers faces Jerome Taillon, a Pittsburgh Pirates prospect. These two guys will control the pace of the game as they will be the ones on the mound attempting to pitch the best March games of their lives.
Holland has pitched well under pressure in the World Series, but that's October. March baseball brings an autumn feel to it as both teams are in a sudden death position.
Both teams are coming off victories as Canada defeated Mexico 10-3, eliminating them from contention. USA stayed alive after defeating Italy 6-2.
