What are the Times and Dates of WBC?

[riverhawk]

I don't know if this belongs here or in the International section but I just wanted to know if the WBC will be on television and if so who is carrying it.

Thanks,
Hawk

I moved the thread here to the International forum and changed the title of the thread, I'm sure the guys will take care of you with the times and dates. All you have to do is just edit your post a little.

Thanks Bonus, but I knew the schedule, but since I am pretty much broke and won't be able to attend the games, I was wondering if I'd be able to see any of them on TV.

Sorry Riverhawk,

I was replying to the title of the thread.

As far as I (and Google) can tell, there are no announcements concerning who has the TV rights.

I checked the WBC site (http://http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/wbc/index.jsp), and there is nothing.

Then, I checked the IBAF website, which I think is here (http://www.baseball.ch). Is this the lowest-budget website ever? Compare this site with FIFA (http://www.fifa.com/en/index.html), or even FIBA (http://www.fiba.com/pages/en/index_en.asp?intro=0) and the IIHL (http://www.iihf.com/), and I think we can get the picture why baseball is still fumbliing around in the dark one millennium after every other major sport figured out how to stage a real World Championship. Seriously, I know pets that have better websites.

I came up with the same thing:ughh I was hoping I missed something, but it appears that I didn't :hp
