2023 World Baseball Classic Pool C


The 2023 World Baseball Classic Pool C was the third of four pools of the 2023 World Baseball Classic that took place from March 11th-15th at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. The Pool C winner and runner up, Mexico and United States advanced to the Quarterfinals 2 round, as well as the Pool D winner and runner up. The Quarterfinals 2 round will be played March 17–18, 2023 in Miami. The teams in this pool consisted of Canada, Colombia, newcomer Great Britain, Mexico, and hosts and defending champions United States.
After starting with a loss to Colombia, Mexico bounced back with three straight wins over the United States, Great Britain and Canada to advance to the quarterfinals as pool winners. The U.S. and Colombia played the last game of the pool, a Colombia win would force a three-way tie which could also favor Canada depending on tiebreakers. The U.S. won 3–2 to advance. Colombia fell to 1–3, tying with Great Britain, but as they lost the head-to-head game, Colombia was relegated to the 2026 World Baseball Classic qualifiers.
