World Baseball Classic</b> (<b>WBC</b>) was an <a href="/wiki/International_Baseball_Federation" title="International Baseball Federation">international professional baseball</a> competition, held

Four <a href="/wiki/2013_World_Baseball_Classic_%E2%80%93_Qualification" class="mw-redirect" title="2013 World Baseball Classic – Qualification">qualification brackets</a> were held in late 2012 and respectively won by <a href="/wiki/Canada_national_baseball_team" title="Canada national baseball team">Canada</a>, <a href="/wiki/Taiwan_national_baseball_team" class="mw-redirect" title="Taiwan national baseball team">Taiwan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Spain_national_baseball_team" title="Spain national baseball team">Spain</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Brazil_national_baseball_team" title="Brazil national baseball team">Brazil</a>, who joined the WBC as the final four teams (the latter two making their Classic debuts). </p><p>As in the <a href="/wiki/2006_World_Baseball_Classic" title="2006 World Baseball Classic">2006 tournament</a>, the first round had a <a href="/wiki/Round-robin_tournament" title="Round-robin tournament">round-robin</a> format, which led to South Korea being eliminated on a <a href="/wiki/Goal_difference" title="Goal difference">run difference</a> tiebreaker. Venezuela also failed to advance out of a tough group. The fourth-place teams in each group – Brazil, Australia, Spain, and Mexico – had to participate in the qualifying round in order to return for the <a href="/wiki/2017_World_Baseball_Classic" title="2017 World Baseball Classic">2017 tournament</a>. </p><p>The second round was a <a href="/wiki/Double-elimination_tournament" title="Double-elimination tournament">modified double-elimination</a> format, as in the <a href="/wiki/2009_World_Baseball_Classic" title="2009 World Baseball Classic">2009 tournament</a>, where the modification was that the final game of each bracket was winner-take-all, even if won by the team emerging from the loser's bracket, although that game only affected seeding as two teams advanced from each bracket. The Netherlands improved on its surprising 2009 run by advancing to the semifinal game, as did two-time defending champion Japan. However, the two-time defending champions Japan were eliminated in the semi-finals game against stunning Puerto Rico. In the final game, the Dominican Republic defeated Puerto Rico to become the first WBC champion from the Western Hemisphere, as well as the first team to complete the WBC with an undefeated record, and the only one to do so until Japan also finished with a perfect record in the <a href="/wiki/2023_World_Baseball_Classic" title="2023 World Baseball Classic">2023 World Baseball Classic</a>. <a href="/wiki/Robinson_Can%C3%B3" title="Robinson Canó">Robinson Canó</a> was named the <a href="/wiki/Most_Valuable_Player" class="mw-redirect" title="Most Valuable Player">Most Valuable Player</a> of the Classic.<sup id="cite_ref-cano_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cano-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Revenue-sharing_dispute">Revenue-sharing dispute</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2013_World_Baseball_Classic&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Revenue-sharing dispute"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The preparations for the third World Baseball Classic were complicated by a dispute between the Japanese Professional Baseball Players Association (JPBPA), the union for all <a href="/wiki/Nippon_Professional_Baseball" title="Nippon Professional Baseball">Nippon Professional Baseball</a> players, and MLB over revenue sharing. JPBPA demanded a larger share of advertising and merchandise sponsorship revenue for the tournament, a large chunk of which came from Japanese companies. MLB resisted the move in part due to the fact that the World Baseball Classic is a joint production of MLB and the <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Players_Association" title="Major League Baseball Players Association">MLB Player's Association</a>, meaning that those two organizations bore the cost of the tournament. </p><p>In July 2012, the JPBPA voted unanimously to boycott the 2013

changed from the previous tournament: </p> <ul><li>65 pitches in First Round (down from 70 in 2009)</li> <li>80 pitches in Second Round (down from 85 in 2009)</li> <li>95 pitches in Championship Round (down from 100 in 2009)</li></ul> <p>If a pitcher reached his limit during an at bat, he was allowed to finish pitching to the batter, but was removed from the game at the end of the at bat. </p><p>A pitcher must: </p> <ul><li>Not pitch until a minimum of four days have passed since he last pitched, if he threw 50 or more pitches when he last pitched;</li> <li>Not pitch until a minimum of one day has passed since he last pitched, if he threw 30 or more pitches when he last pitched;</li> <li>Not pitch until a minimum of one day has passed since any second consecutive day on which the pitcher pitched;</li></ul> <p>For purposes of the pitcher use limitation rules, both semifinal games were to be deemed to have been played on the day of the latest semifinal game. </p><p>A <a href="/wiki/Mercy_rule" title="Mercy rule">mercy rule</a> came into effect when one team led by either fifteen runs after five innings, or ten runs after seven innings in the first two rounds. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Instant_replay" title="Instant replay">Instant replay</a> was also available to umpires during the tournament. As was introduced in <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball" title="Major League Baseball">Major League Baseball</a> during the <a href="/wiki/2008_Major_League_Baseball_season#Instant_Replay" title="2008 Major League Baseball season">2008 season</a>, replays were only used to adjudicate on home run decisions, to determine whether the ball was fair or foul, over the fence or not, and the impact of fan interference. </p><p>An alternative version of the IBAF's <a href="/wiki/Extra_innings#Baseball" title="Extra innings">extra inning rule</a> was also used. If after 12 innings the score was still tied, each half inning thereafter would have started with runners on second and first base. The runners would have been the eighth and ninth hitters due in that inning respectively. For example, if the number five hitter was due to lead off the inning, the number three hitter would have been on second base, and the number four hitter on first base. However, this rule was never actually employed in this year's Classic, as the only extra-inning game in the tournament ended prior to a 13th inning. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
