Cuba this half inning so far has:

Dropped an infield fly
Thrown a wild pitch that advanced the runner from first to *third*
Committed a catcher's interference when the catcher used his mask to try to scoop the ball

Matt Vasgersian will be the play by play guy for the Mets’ opening day game against the Pirates on NBC, but you'll all be listening to Howie Rose on the radio anyway.

Team USA's WBC fate will air on FS1, not Tubi, as Fox changes course The fate of Team USA in the World Baseball Classic will be aired exclusively on Tubi, as Italy-Mexico face off on the Fox-owned streamer.

The Italy-Mexico game will now air on FS1 instead of Tubi. Poor Tubi.
