finished in the top 3 every classic. Japan has won 2 of the 3 championships. That's amazing given the talent in the Domincan, US, and Cuba.
The US has one 4th place finish in three tournaments. That sucks. Really. We are sending our MLB players and can't catch up to the Japanese or South Koreans.
By medal count the Japanese and South Koreans have 5 of the 9 total medals thus far. The US has 0.
