The 2013 WBC brings another intense meeting as Cuba and the Netherlands will meet in a do or die situation as Pool 1 is just one game away from the first semifinal game scheduled in the tournament. If you can't watch the game live or the live stream on this page, check out MLB Gamdeday's live blog of the game with play-by-play, pitch counts, lineups and live updates allow you to remain on top of everything in Tokyo. 

Cuba and the Netherlands met last week and the Netherlands made sure to embarrass their opponents in a 6-2 game that went their way. 

Cuba is always a favorite to win the tournament as they have a talented group of men. They come into the tournament ranked No. 1 and have yet to win a WBC as Japan has been in charge of winning the tournament both times. 

Though many would prefer to watch Cuba and Japan in a championship matchup again, they would have to settle for a possible semifinal meeting between both nations. If Cuba wins this matchup, they will advance to Pool 1 semifinal, but as the Netherlands continue to make noise in the WBC, they are looking to be the team to challenge Japan. 

Cuba defeated Japan in the first round, so they look hopefully, while the Netherlands were crushed 16-4 by the Japanese.
