I wonder if any venue other than San Diego, LA, and Miami will host the finals. Maybe Dallas? Those three are just the perfect places though.

Not very Worldly is it. Seoul, Toronto, Taipei should be added

2009 had it right. First round completely outside the Continental US. Demonstrate that the game is global.

Would never happen but would be fun if the WBC was changed to a host/co-host format where a specific group of cities within a geography host all the games like the FIFA World Cup. Would add more flair to each of the tournaments and imagine a WBC Final featuring Japan in Tokyo Dome.
Countries like Japan, Korea and Mexico could probably host the tournament on their own. Canada could probably do it as a Toronto and Montreal as the cities with maybe a border American city (although weather would be a factor for outdoor stadiums). For the US, multiple states/regions could also host.

Bring the WBC back to San Diego! Place was rocking in 2017, and with the Padres/Baseball hype around town now, it’ll be rocking again

Boo. Why are the playoffs only Miami and Houston? I’d love to go to a game if it was closer.
