The United States is just a win away from successfully defending its World Baseball Classic title.
The U.S. dominated Cuba 14-2 in the WBC semifinals on Sunday at loanDepot Park, thanks largely to a pair of massive home runs from Trea Turner in what was a wild offensive showing from Team USA. They move on to the championship game Tuesday, when they’ll take on either Japan or Mexico in Miami. A win in the final would make the United States just the second two-time winner of the tournament.
In the first inning Sunday, Cuba took an early 1-0 lead after Adam Wainwright walked in Roel Santos.
