Japan routed Korea in [[link]] their first World Baseball Classic match-up. Considering that Japan lost to Korean in the Olympics, defeating their rival in a 14-2 called game must have been cathartic.
After the game, when a reporter said that the entire Japanese team got pumped up, right fielder Ichiro Suzuki replied, [[link]] “In Dragon Quest, tension increases, and you get stronger, right? It was like that.”
