- On Tuesday, Team USA lost 3-2 to the Venezuela national team in the World Baseball Classic final on U.S. soil, before a hostile crowd.

- The Americans mustered only three hits in the final as leadoff hitters went 0-for-9 and Aaron Judge and Kyle Schwarber struck out multiple times.
- Observers concluded Team USA were luckier than good in the final, as they were 'lucky to get the two runs they got,' while Fox faced embarrassment during Tuesday's game.
- Bryce Harper's eighth-inning homer briefly tied the game 2-2 by hitting a thigh-high changeup over center field, highlighting how few Americans reached the outfield as most hitters were neutralized.
