World Baseball Classic 42: Free Republics

Welcome to the 42nd World Baseball Classic! Teams from 54 nations will soon compete in the Free Republics to determine the best baseball team in the multiverse. For some of those teams, this is their first time competing in the most prestigious international baseball tournament. For others, this is just another chapter in a long series of tournaments. OOCly, this tournament marks the WBC debut of a new scorinator (Baseinator) and the introduction of style modifiers and park factors for the first time. Underneath the spoiler, you will find a list of all 54 nations that are participating in this tournament, along with their current ranking and which pot they were placed in for the group draw.

The format for this WBC will be 9 groups of 6, with each team playing a total of 30 games against their groupmates (a 3 game home series and a 3 game away series against each opponent). The top 2 teams in each group's final standings will advance to the Playoffs, with the 4 lowest ranked second place teams playing in a Play-In Round. Should any teams finish the group stage tied and should the question of advancement be at stake, the tied teams will compete in tiebreaker playoffs to determine who advances to the playoffs. The tiebreaker format is described in more detail in the host bid.

The first series will be scorinated on SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3rd. You may post your rosters and RPs at any time. Please use the WBC Discussion Thread for purely OOC posts and comments and reserve this thread for rosters, RPs and results.

If you wish to use umpires in your RPs, we do have an Umpire Thread, which has (unfortunately) not been used in a long time. If you wish to add umpires to this thread, feel free to do so.

Rosters

Rosters are a list of your players, the positions they occupy and your team's home stadium(s). This can also include statistics, both personal and about their play, as well as their handedness, stengths and weaknesses, uniforms, nicknames, coaches, or anything else you find appropriate. You can find examples of rosters in last WBC's thread, starting here and continuing for the remainder of the first page.

Rosters are appreciated and there will be a roster bonus for nations that post rosters. Rosters may include a RP permissions box (godmodding, injuries, choosing scorers, etc.) if players want to put restrictions on the roleplaying of their characters. Here is an RP box form that you could copy and paste into your roster post:

Code: Select all: My opponent, if they RP first, may do the following: Choose my runscorers: Yes/No Choose my lineup: Yes/No Follow my pitching rotation: Yes/No Godmod scoring events: Yes/No RP injuries to my players: Yes/No Godmod injuries to my players: Yes/No Eject my players: Yes/No Godmod other events: Yes/No Use DH at home: Yes/No Style Modifier: Park Factor:

Style Modifiers and Park Factors

Baseinator utilizes style modifiers and park factors. The style modifiers work like style modifiers everywhere else is NS Sports. Any number between -5 and 5 (including decimal numbers such as -3.14 and 3.14) is a valid style modifier. Negative numbers signify a team built around pitching and defense while positive numbers signify a team built around hitting. Baseinator style modifiers do not alter the margin of victory under any circumstances, so there is no need to worry about the effects of choosing positive or negative modifiers on your team's run difference. Instead, they add or subtract runs from both teams. A style mod of -5 is the most pitching-oriented while a style mod of 5 is the most hitting-oriented. A style mod of 0 is considered neutral (a team equally balanced between pitching/defense and hitting).

Park factors work slightly differently. The park factor is a number reflecting the home team's ballpark, which acts as an additional style modifier. Park factors range from 50 to 200, with 100 signifying a neutral ballpark. A park factor near 200 signifies a park comparable to RL Coors Field from the 1990s. A park factor near 50 signifies a pitchers park as extreme as 1990s Coors Field. You may find a list of RL park factors useful.

New to baseball RPing, or sports RPing in general?

If you're new to sports RPing in general, please read this thread, as it provides a great guide for what you need to know. If you have any questions, you can send a TG to Free Republics, post on the WBC Discussion Thread, or on the Sports Roleplaying Questions thread.

One thing unique to baseball is the designated hitter, a feature often confusing to newcomers. For explanation, I turn to Equestrian States' concise summary:

Equestrian States wrote:The Designated Hitter (DH) Rule is an aspect that is unique to baseball here on NS Sports. In short, the DH rule allows for teams to designate a player to bat for their pitcher, generally giving teams more flexibility when at bat. For more information on the DH rule and its implementation, please refer to the Wikipedia article on the subject, as it goes into far more detail than I can here. In regards to the WBC, the DH rule is only used if the home team uses a DH. If the home team does not use a DH, neither team will use the DH, regardless of the away team’s preference. If the home team has not specified (in their roster or an RP) whether they use a DH or not, the first participant to RP will dictate the use/nonuse of the DH in that game.

IC information, as well as the group draw, is provided in the posts below.

Free Republics National Information

History of the Free Republics

The Federation of Free Republics was formed in 1767, following decades of revolutions in the Lunia region. In the previous few decades, there had been a wave of revolutions. The ideas of liberalism had become popular in the region, as Abram Schmitts, an economist from Shostistan, wrote several books promoting the benefits of capitalizm. Soon, absolute monarchies fell throughout the Lunia region. The Kingdom of Saintland remained unaffected by this wave of revolutions, due to its self-imposed isolation.

Following the revolutions, there were now many Republics scattered throughout the region. These Republics faced seemingly constant attempts from reactionary elements to reverse the revolution and bring back absolute monarchy. They also had trouble trading and communicating with one another. The newly free, with a lowercase f, Republics had numerous antiquated laws and contradictory systems of measurement in effect. A foot in Vorita was 2 feet in Amolotopia and a meter in Roxawa was a decimeter in Nejax. It was a total mess all around. This mess was made even worse by the multitude of languages spoken in the different Republics. As they sought to eliminate trade barriers and forge closer ties between one another, their efforts resulted in confusion. In the days of absolute monarchy, the inability to speak one another's language was a benefit, since kings were always waging wars against one another. However, as the Industrial Revolution heated up and brought an unprecedented degree of prosperity to the land, they could no longer maintain separate languages, separate measurements and the arcane laws and regulations that were hindering commerce in the region.

Then, a rebellion broke out in the Republic of Roxawa. The rebels sought to abolish all property, all laws and even government itself. Rampaging around the countryside, they attacked government buildings, vandalized property and stole whatever they felt like. All the while, they spoke of total freedom. Terrifying the Republic's well-armed militia into inaction, the rebel crime spree continued for weeks. Fear spread throughout the region that other "rebellions" of this sort would soon break out, providing the perfect excuse for the Federationists. The leaders of 77 Republics throughout the region agreed to send delegates to the city of Baseton in Amolotopia to discuss an appropriate response to the rebellion. This was a pretext, which was seized upon by the Federationists to push their "Constitution" scheme.

The Federationists proposed that a document called a "Constitution" would establish a new unified government of all of the Republics, known as the Federation Government. This would be a relatively weak government, as the Republics would remain mostly autonomous and generally free to do as they wished in governing themselves. The Federation Government would have an enumerated list of responsibilities, such as promoting commerce, maintaining a common foreign policy and common immigration policy and several other minor tasks, such as the option to establish a national postal system.

The Constitution guaranteed a number of fundamental rights. Among them are the rights to freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion and the right to own weapons for the defense not only of oneself and of the Federation, but also against tyranny. Other provisions of the Constitution prohibited unreasonable searches, cruel and unusual punishments and double jeopardy. The document also included a strict prohibition on the practice of slavery and declared immediately and permanently free any "slave" that was brought within any territory subject to the Free Republics. The Federation Government has the power to pass any legislation it deems necessary to free slaves. While ratification was controversial, due to the feeling among many people that the Federation Government was too powerful, it was eventually ratified by the electorate in each of the original 77 Republics. Today, there are the number of Republics in the Federation is well into the hundreds.

The Constitution created a bicameral Legislature and an executive branch where power is shared equally by the 2 heads of state. The Assembly is the popularly elected branch of the Legislature. Originally, it used a first-past-the-post system, but this was later changed to proportional representation after political parties and coalitions became the norm. The entire Assembly has always been up for re-election every second year. The Senate, by contrast, is a purely appointed branch and Senators serve for life terms. When a Senator is elected to another office, he becomes an inactive Senator, but other than such periods when he may serve in other offices, he is a Senator for life, without exception. Each Republic may appoint a new Senator every second year and Senators are appointed in the same years when Assembly elections are held. Finally, the Consuls are elected to 8 year terms, with a new Consul elected every 4th year. This means that every other Assembly election is held simultaneously with a Consul election. The Constitution prohibits any Consul from serving more than a single term per lifetime. Originally, Consuls were also elected first-past-the-post, but that has since changed to a 3 round system. In the first round, the top 2 candidates, plus any other candidates that get at least 10 percent of the vote advance, assuming that no candidate gets a majority of the vote. The second round sees the top 2 candidates advance, again assuming that nobody wins a majority of the votes cast. In the third and final round, whoever wins the majority of votes cast is elected. Both Consuls have and have always had full power to veto any act of the other and former Consuls automatically become Senators upon the expiration of their term in office.

The government of the Free Republics quickly moved to standardize the system of measurements used throughout the Federation and adopt English as the national language. To help transition the Federation to an English-speaking nation, the Federation Government established a system of schools funded by the Federation Government, which ensured that the next generation would speak English and identify themselves as Republicans, rather than identifying themselves by their home Republic and speaking their Republic's native language. A substantial minority of parents resisted this effort, but children were allowed to go to school and learn English, whether or not they had parental permission. By 1830, almost everybody spoke English and identified as a Republican, not an Amolotopian, Roxawan, Voritan, Schost or whatever the demonym was for their home Republic. This brought about a more unified society. Around this time, education was returned to the Republics, most of which eventually adopted a voucher based system.

The government also banned trade barriers between Republics. This was an expected and noncontroversial move. The funding of the government by a tariff also proved uncontroversial, since politicians generally agreed that the tariff should be limited to revenue only and not used to "protect" industries from competition. However, an income tax was eventually adopted as foreign imports began to dry up. The Republican economy was simply too much of a powerhouse to justify importing goods from abroad. Discontent with the income tax grew as the government kept pushing it higher and higher. Finally, Paul Musgrove ran for Consul on a platform of capping all taxes at 10 percent of income. After his election, the amendment passed both the Assembly and the Senate before being sent directly to referendum. Voters in every Republic overwhelmingly voted for it and it became a popular amendment.

In the 20th century, the Free Republics became even more of an economic powerhouse, thanks to the capitalizt economic system. Business thrived in the FFR, as the nation became progressively wealthier. Over the years, the FFR has expanded its territory while remaining on the cutting edge of technological advancement. In the present day, the Free Republics have a population in the billions and are one of the wealthiest nations in the multiverse, with a correspondingly high rate of income inequality. The exact population of the Free Republics is unknown, due to a Constitutional amendment adopted in 1934, which prohibited the taking of a Census by any entity, whether governmental or otherwise.

Several years ago, the Free Republics were left leaderless following the death of both Consuls within the span of a few months, one of them via assassination. In the chaos, Reino Kulseth of the Holy Party was elected Consul and gradually obtained dictatorial power for himself at the expense of the nation's Republican institutions. Kulseth established a tyrannical government that passed laws against lying (despite routinely lying to their own people) and mandating the use of the word "thou" instead of you in most circumstances. Kulseth dragged the nation into a large-scale war that proved extremely costly for both sides and which led to his downfall.

In the end, the Republican people rose up against Kulseth and, aligned with several foreign armies, brought down Kulseth's "Holy Republican Empire" and brought back the Federation of Free Republics. Robert Nicholls, the father of Veleik Nicholls (leader of the popular revolt) and owner of Nicholls Enterprises, was named the new Acting Consul until such time as the normal electoral process could elect his replacement. However, the following election led to the rise to power of another tyrant, Consul Caleb O'Reilly, who jailed Acting Consul Nicholls and basically turned over control of the country to a hivemind of robots which oppressed the people of the nation until one day when hackers disabled the robots and Consul O'Reilly resigned from office, claiming to have been under hypnosis during his entire time as Consul. In the aftermath, Consul Nicholls was restored to power as the Senior Consul as the FFR geared up for another election. Consul Nicholls intended to spend his time as Consul restoring the Free Republics to its former glory and was relieved that the Republican people selected retired soccer player and current professional wrestler Kyle Bolton to be their new Junior Consul in the election.

Unfortunately, the left-wing extremists in a handful of Republics, who had previously scared many Republicans into voting for Kulseth and O'Reilly, rose up in a wave of anarchistic street violence. When the Federation Government adopted measures to stop the violence, the 32 Republics they controlled seceded from the Free Republics and declared themselves a Confederacy of Leftist Republics, which quickly became a state sponsor of terror. Consul Nicholls waged war against this rebellion and ultimately defeated them. After the conclusion of this short-lived civil war, Consul Nicholls introduced "charter societies" located in the 32 former Leftist Republics and sold off ownership of these autonomous societies, whose residents are prohibited from participating in Federation Government elections or sending any representation to Republica, to the highest bidding political extremist groups in an effort to address the FFR's political extremism problem once and for all.

With the extremist groups largely exiled to the charter societies, Republican politics is expected to be less interesting in the future, which should be good for political stability in the nation.

Transportation

Just about every mode of transportation is an option in the Free Republics. Visitors for the World Baseball Classic may arrive at any seaport or airport in the Free Republics. Planes and ships may also be used to travel between cities. As the Free Republics spans 4 continents and many thousands of miles, the use of planes is recommended for long-distance travel.

Several private companies offer high speed rail between cities. It is possible to travel through most of the Free Republics on high-speed rail, although in some places you may have to walk across the city to a competing company's station to go to your desired destination.

The use of bicycles, although unregulated, is not recommended. The Free Republics are simply too vast a nation, so players and fans that travel by bike risk missing a match altogether.

Taxis are available in every city that will be hosting World Baseball Classic games. Most bus services cover a radius of less than 100 miles, so the use of buses is only recommended for short distance travel.

Automobiles are legal in the Free Republics and can be rented near any airport or seaport. Travel by automobile is possible to any nation located on one of the 4 continents upon which the Free Republics are located. However, as the Republican continents are located in Lunia, it is not possible to travel by automobile to-or-from the Free Republics and any other nation participating in the World Softball Classic. Anybody who intends to rent a car is strongly encouraged to get a Republican drivers license, as foreign drivers licenses are only recognized in certain Republics. Most Republics will hand out a drivers license to anybody that applies and passes the driving test. The difficulty of these tests varies greatly by Republics. The test in Nejax is notoriously easy while the test in Amolotopia is notorious as one of the most difficult. Despite this, all Republics are required by Federation law to recognize out-of-Republic drivers licenses as valid. A wide variety of cars are commonly available in the Free Republics, such as SUVs, sports cars and pick-up trucks. Those that have money to burn may rent luxury cars or limos. The vast majority of cars on the road are produced in the Free Republics. Many roads, especially long distance roads, are underfunded and in poor condition, so planes and high speed rail are much more popular in the Free Republics.

Lodging

There are numerous hotel firms throughout the Free Republics. Participating nations will be required to pay for their own lodging. We encourage participating teams to visit hotels.co.republica and purchase rooms before the rush. Those that wait may very well end up staying in a cheap motel with holes in the walls and bedbugs under the sheets.

Those national teams that do not wish to stay in hotels may stay at campgrounds outside of the host city.

Weather

The Free Republics has a varied climate but as the World Baseball Classic will be held during the summer, there will be warm weather everywhere for the duration of the competition. Rain and thunderstorms may or may not make an appearance as well.

Language

The official language of the Free Republics is English and all government documents are printed in English. Most private businesses do not print anything in a non-English language. While the rise of xenophobia in the Free Republics has subsided, most Republicans still don't speak any languages other than English. The most common foreign language spoken in the Free Republics is Latin, due to the influence of the Church of Saintland in recent years, but its use is currently frowned upon because of the language's association with the former Kulseth dictatorship.

Currency

The Republican Thaler is the only widely accepted currency in the Free Republics. Financial institutions are generally willing to change Sanctii bullion, Acedonian Aces or Universal Standard Dollars into Thalers. Due to the large number of currencies in the world, it is impossible for financial institutions in the Free Republics to keep track of all of them. Therefore, it is highly recommend that everybody visiting the Free Republics get their currency converted into Thalers, USDs or bullion before entering the Free Republics. Non-Republican Thalers, such as the Taxachusetts Thaler (which was notorious for its extremely high inflation rates), are not accepted as currency in the Free Republics and are not convertible into Republican Thalers.

Entertainment

There are a plethora of entertainment options in the Free Republics. Every quality hotel room comes equipped with cable or satellite television, including thousands of channels and an interactive program guide. No matter what your preferences, you can probably find something on Republican television that you'd want to watch. If you can't find anything to watch on TV, you can always log on to Sanctustube, a video sharing website from West Saintland, and browse the uncensored version of the site, which has (illegal) copies of just about every television program and movie in the multiverse.

Virtually every town in the Free Republics includes a movie theater, which is a popular social hangout. Tickets are relatively inexpensive, to keep an endless flow of teenagers coming into the movie theaters. Concerts are held in the major cities on a near-daily basis and there are several popular groups in each major genre.

Nightclubs and bars are available in virtually every village, town or city in the entire Federation. The local laws do differ, but most Republics will allow anybody over the age of 15 or so to enter a bar or nightclub. Strip clubs and brothels are also popular, although the regulation of those establishments greatly differs in each Republic. Women should be forewarned that the definition of consent in the Free Republics tends to be somewhat looser than they may be used to. In particular, Republican law regards intoxicated individuals as 100% capable of giving consent to the same extent as sober individuals and holds such individuals fully responsible for their actions and choices while intoxicated. Many bars and clubs also sell marijuana, which is legal throughout most of the Free Republics (despite the efforts of the Outlaw Marijuana Party to change this).

In the past, pro wrestling has been a popular form of entertainment in the Free Republics, especially among guys between the ages of 13 and 30. The wrestling company in the Free Republics put on extremely violent and sexualized shows. As their shows grew more explicit, their ratings steadily increased to the point where they were once of the most popular programs on television in the Free Republics. The Republican Wrestling Conglomerate attempted international expansion at one time, but the rise of Consul Kulseth and the restrictions he imposed on the content of their programming eventually drove them out of business. Abelino Sagese, their former owner, established the New Republican Wrestling Conglomerate, but it is not quite as popular yet as its predecessor.

Republican entertainment has been hit hard by the Kulseth and O'Reilly regimes, but businesses in that sector are currently trying to revive it. The Republican video game industry, long dominated by the RepublicSoft Saint, a device created as part of a partnership between RepublicSoft and the Sanctii government, has been hit particularly hard due to RepublicSoft's extremely close ties to the Kulseth regime. Republican gamers are currently enjoying the Miktondo Flip, a Taiyouese import that was the first to release of a new generation of handheld gaming devices while increasing numbers of Republican computer users have begun migrating to open source alternatives to RepublicSoft's Doors operating system and Citrus Computing's cOS mobile operating system, particularly after the free upgrade to Doors 12 was discovered to contain numerous backdoors designed to aid the efforts of the Kulseth government to spy on its citizens and Citrus Computing was discovered to have collaborated with the O'Reilly regime. Even Googol's Cyborg mobile OS has come under much criticism of late for overly restricting the freedom of its users.

Important Laws

For the most part, visiting teams and fans will not have to worry about any unusual laws in the Free Republics. While public nudity statutes remain on the books in many Republics and around half of the Republics restrict the use of hard drugs, pornography, prostitution, alcohol, tobacco and cannabis are generally legal. In fact, pornography is legal everywhere in the FFR, as it is recognized by the Federation courts as freedom of speech. While many of these activities were barred at the request of the Kulseth regime and later barred again by the O'Reilly regime, there has been a push since the fall of the dictatorships to legalize them as widely as possible. However, laws against abortion tend to vary between Republics and some Republics have made it a crime to utilize their transportation infrastructure to travel to another Republic to procure an abortion.

Some Republics have their share of silly laws. The Constitutional provision prohibiting "cruel and unusual punishment" does not have as strong of an effect as you might expect because the Federation courts use an 18th century definition of cruel and unusual punishment. While nobody's going to be hung, drawn and quartered or tortured for evidence, several backwater Republics do practice some rather bizarre punishments for crimes. If you're going to run into any legal problems, it will probably be in some backwater Republic, since they have historically been the main power base of extremist politicians in the Free Republics. You may also run into problems in the charter societies as they are not required to follow the Federation Constitution and are generally run by extremist groups. Even under the Kulseth and O'Reilly Consulships, the federal system remained largely intact, so many of these extremist politicians have been in power since the days before Kulseth's rise.

In particular, women visiting the Free Republics should be mindful that sexual consent is defined slightly more broadly than they may be used to. The Free Republics has traditionally had a very sex-positive culture for the most part and has tended to be suspicious at times regarding the reliability of accusations of sexual crimes. The different sexual norms in the Free Republics have caused several international incidents in the past. Sexual norms changed during the Kulseth regime and have yet to fully return to the way that they were. Given Kulseth's popularity among Republican women, it is doubtful that the old sexual culture will ever be fully restored but there are many Republicans who long for a return to normalcy, including the old sexual norms, and the nightlife industry is currently bigger and more successful than it has been at any point since the rise of Kulseth.

National Organization for Men Stadium (Round of 16: Cassadaigua vs TBD)

Named after the National Organization for Men (NOM), National Organization for Men Stadium is a mid-size cookie cutter stadium located in Estonopolis, Keronama. NOM is a controversial, but politically powerful organization which advocates for the rights of men in the Free Republics. The stadium seats 58,534 and has an artificial turf surface. The fences are 335 feet to the corners and 408 feet to center. The park factor is 92. Keronama is toward the eastern part of the Free Republics.

Nicholls Air Park (Round of 16: Super-Llamaland vs Northwest Kalactin)

It is the home of the Latroit Ligers, Latroit's team in the Yorkoba Baseball League. The fences are 330 feet away to the corners and 400 feet to center. Foul territory is massive and advertisements on the center-field fence further obstruct the vision of hitters, making this stadium one of the most famous pitchers parks in the FFR. It has a park factor of 72 and a capacity of 73,203.

Kountry Bank Stadium (Round of 16: Lycrabon vs Ko-oren)

Located in Albertope, Roxawa, Kountry Bank Stadium is a multipurpose stadium that seats 83,802 which was once known as Church of Saintland Stadium. The Church of Saintland chose not to renew the naming rights to the stadium and those were picked up by Kountry Bank, a regional financial institution. The Republic of Roxawa is one of the southern Republics. The fences are 330 feet to the corners and 406 to center. The park factor is 95.

Salvation Park (Round of 16: New Sangti vs West Phoenicia)

Salvation Park, located in El Fierro in the Charter Society of Malifornia, is an open-air natural grass park with fences at 337 feet to left, 329 to right and 408 to center and a park factor of 92. Formerly known as News Magazine Park, the park was renamed after the Leftist Republics Rebellion when the rights to govern Malifornia, including the former Leftist Republics capital of El Fierro, were sold to the Salvation Circle, a radical Christian sect. Per an agreement with World Baseball Classic organizers and the Federation Government, the Salvation Circle will not be enforcing their laws upon any foreign nationals visiting Malifornia for the World Baseball Classic series. Salvation Park seats 47,201. Malifornia is located in the south western portion of the Free Republics.

Woodson Coconuts IslandDome (Round of 16: Schiltzberg vs South Covello)

The Woodson Coconuts IslandDome is located in the city of Toakameau, located in the island Republic of Falatulu and seats 66,665. Falatulu consists of several small islands off the southern coast of the Free Republics. The Republic is known for its libertine lifestyle and for its high levels of political apathy. The Falatuluan lifestyle is a non-stop party, making the Republic a popular vacation destination. Free love is practiced by the majority of Falatuluans and drug use is rampant on the islands. With a tropical climate, its always warm and its almost always sunny on the islands. During the O'Reilly regime, Falatulu declared its independence, but it has since rejoined the FFR. Toakameau is the only major city in Falatulu. The Woodson Coconuts IslandDome is now sponsored by Woodson Coconuts, the leading coconut company in the Free Republics. The dome is not regularly used for baseball but Island Park is currently hosting the national college baseball championships so it was unavailable for the World Baseball Classic. The fences are 340 feet to the corners and 430 feet to center. Due to the high altitude on the islands of Falatulu, the park factor is 113.

Miktondo Flip Park (Round of 16: Nova Anglicana vs Pripet Socialist Republic)

Miktondo Flip Park is located in Borotia, Iodara. Iodara is a western Republic, located in the middle of a mountain range. The city of Borotia is located in a valley between mountains. Iodara is relatively lightly populated and the Republic's populace tends to be very self-reliant and skeptical of outsiders. The fences are 283 feet to left, 462 feet to center and 324 feet to right. The park factor is 102. The capacity is 53,886.

Church of Technicology Stadium (Quarterfinals: Scootalove City vs Pripet Socialist Republic)

Located in Tarita, Quartona, Church of Technicology Stadium is an otherwise unspectacular 61,403 cookie-cutter stadium that is mainly known for being named after the Church of Technicology, a religion founded by a failed science fiction writer named J.Q. Caballero. Widely considered a scam masquerading as a religion, the Church of Technicology has nonetheless managed to gain a following among some celebrities. They are mostly famous for their litigiousness, including a lawsuit against the leading domain name registrar in the Free Republics that was literally laughed out of court by a judge, on national television. Quartona is located in the north-western portion of the Free Republics. The fences are 335 feet to the corners and 412 to center. The park factor is 96.

Horn Field (Quarterfinals: Cassadaigua vs Schiltzberg)

Located on the campus of the University of Nejax in Goldberg, Nejax, Horn Field is proof that everything is bigger in Nejax. This massive ballpark seats 84,201 and has a spacious playing field that reduces home runs dramatically but turns many singles into doubles and doubles into triples. The fences are 346 feet to the corners, 419 to left and right center and 444 to center. The park factor is 117. Horn Field is the home stadium of the Nejax Horns, one of the most storied college baseball programs in the Free Republics. Nejax is a southern Republic. Nejax has acquired somewhat of an international notoriety in the past.

Federation Post Park (Quarterfinals: Super-Llamaland vs West Phoenicia)

Located in Shottsburg, Shostistan, Federation Post Park is the home of the Shottsburg Sharpshooters. This retro-style park seats 53,201 and is noted for its tiny foul territory. The fences are 308 feet away in left, 312 in right and 388 in center. The park factor is 107. Shostistan is located in the north-eastern Free Republics. Federation Post was once part of the Federation Government but has been privatized. While they are no longer a monopoly, they remain a popular option for sending mail.

RepublicSoft Stadium (Quarterfinals: Darmen vs Lycrabon)

RepublicSoft Stadium is located in New City, Orlandiana. New City is believed to be the most populous city in the Free Republics, but RepublicSoft Stadium seats just 42,282. Ticket prices are notoriously high at RepublicSoft Stadium and many believe that the capacity was kept deliberately low to draw a wealthier audience to the stadium in New City. RepublicSoft is a computer company in the Free Republics. They make the Doors operating system, which was once the most popular OS in the Lunia region. One most recent version of Doors, Doors 12, became notorious for containing backdoors that allowed Consul Kulseth to hack into people's computers. RepublicSoft is also well known for their line of office software. However, they are most widely known as the co-creators of the Saint, along with Royal Computer Entertainment of Saintland (RCES) and were the producers of most of the first-party software for the Saint. Orlandiana is a mid-northern Republic. RepublicSoft Stadium's playing field is spacious, with large foul territory and fences positioned 341 feet away at the corners and 421 feet back in center. The park factor is 82.

BearOil Park (Semifinals: Scootalove City vs Darmen)

BearOil Park is located in Petrograd, Plymouth. Its surface is a special genetically engineered grass called BearGrass designed to be weather-resistant. BearOil, which is based out of Petrograd, is the largest and most profitable oil company in the Free Republics. The fences are 299 feet to the corners and 399 to center, with a park factor of 102.

AllMartDome (Semifinals: Cassadaigua vs Super-Llamaland)

Located in Reco, Jolarus, the AllMartDome is an 88,234 seat stadium. Sponsored by AllMart, the leading big box store in the Free Republics, the AllMartDome is a multi-purpose domed stadium used for soccer, football, baseball and several other sports, as well as conventions. A giant green and yellow AllMart logo is one of the stadium's defining features, along with its transparent roof, which permits a natural grass surface to be installed inside of a domed stadium. Jolarus is a socially conservative Republic located in the central part of the Free Republics. Its fences are 325 feet to the corners and 402 feet to center. The park factor is 96.

Nail Frolov Colosseum (Third Place Series)

The Nail Frolov Colosseum, located in Santangiago, Perotutia, is a spacious stadium named after Nail Frolov, a long-time Senator from the Republic of Perotutia. Frolov, a Progressive Senator, was known around the FFR for his skill in bringing Federation tax funds to Perotutia. Santangiago is a relatively small city that nonetheless has a 99,406 seat stadium. However, since Frolov has been dead for several decades and Perotutia has been unable to find another Senator so skilled at bringing tax dollars from other Republics to Perotutia, his Colosseum has fallen into disrepair. As the progressive-minded citizens of Perotutia have grown less interested in sports over the past few decades, their Republic government has done no upkeep on the stadium for years. While most Republican coaches are not willing to play there, Nail Frolov's personal Colosseum somehow made it onto the list of ballparks for the World Baseball Classic. Perotutia is a south-eastern Republic. Due to the high altitude in the mountainous Republic of Perotutia, the fences have been placed at 350 feet to the corners and 440 feet to center. The park factor is 151.

Gem of the Oceans Stadium (Finals)

Located in Republica, the capitol of the Free Republics, Gem of the Oceans Stadium is a massive stadium that seats 101,208 fans. Gem of the Oceans Stadium is named after the National Anthem of the Free Republics. Republica is located near the center of the Free Republics, but is slightly north of the true center. The fences are 330 feet to the corners and 400 feet to center. The park factor is 100.

The private journal of Princess of Equestrian States, Twilight Sparkle

My mother had a crazy idea for an adventure. She was talking with two foreign celebrities and politicians from The Democratic Republic of The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp. Who, weirdly enough, look like and are exactly like Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash. But there not changelings. They are Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash. I'm not sure exactly how this works.

But, I digress. After meeting my mother when they were in Canterlot for that baseball game against Drakland a while back, they together came up with the stunt idea of them, her and, me to get shot out of a cannon and land into a cake. Of course, my mom being my mom agreed and 'volunteered' me for pony cannonball duty. Of all the mothers in Equestria, I had to get the adrenaline junkie who drags me into a literal mess via cannon. I still love her, even though she's nuts some times. <3

After the WBC festivities where over, mom and I got on a plane to Muffin City. That country is... well calling it a bit weird is an understatement. Mom and I got in many water spontaneous water fights while just touring Muffin City with Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash. Also, there's just something in the air that makes you feel warm and happy.

After that, Mom and I got in a limo with Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash to a field just outside of town the city. The cannon was massive and the cake was even bigger. Just like that Rainbow Dash just popped into the cannon, then my mom, I nervously flew in and then, Scootaloo got in. Rainbow Dash turns out was taking pictures with a remote camera.

I got nervous and wanted to back out. I tried to blow out the fuse.

I wasn't able to do it in time. We all landed safely, but I was a bit dizzy from the launch. Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo had a bit of a cake fight that we got dragged into. Honestly, it was really fun.

After all of that we had vegetarian pizza. Derpian pizza turns out is really good. When we went back to the airport, we shared a group hug. Scootaloo's and Dashes friendship has been bonded just like my relationship with my mom. I'm getting kinda sleepy now, I'm going to take a nap in the plane. Who knew getting shot out of a cannon could be so tiring?

THE GRAND DUCHY OF SCHILTZBERG

"Deum Super Omnia"

History:
The Grand Duchy of Schiltzberg is an enormous nation that stretches to engulf much of the European continent, and has grown from humble beginnings into being the economic, social, and cultural powerhouse that it is today. In the year 1718, the grand patriot and war hero, whose name was Nicolas Schiltz, was granted a large portion of land for his gallantry in action and his extreme patriotism and courage in the First Javanese War of Succession (1704-1707) by the Luxembourgish Grand Duke. This land became a province of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and was called Schiltzberg. Schiltzberg began to grow in industry and culture, and with the growing ideas of the Enlightenment, Schiltzbergers believed that they deserved to be a sovereign state, which would be independent from Luxembourg. Inspired by the American Revolution, Duke Jean I of Schiltzberg declared Schiltzberg's independence from Luxembourg on March 31, 1781. Luxembourg was in no state of readiness for war, and was forced to recognize Schiltzberg's independence, and Luxembourg's Grand Duke Joseph I signed the treaty to recognize the new Grand Duchy on February 12, 1782. The nation grew industrially very quickly, having an industrial revolution, and it quadrupled in size, gaining territories from its militarily inferior rival of the Holy Roman Empire, which Schiltzberg seemed to be continuously and indefinitely at war with.

In the nineteenth century, Emperor Napoleon of France, which had been an ally of Schiltzberg's before the French Revolution, threatened to declare war on Schiltzberg if it did not submit itself to his rule. Schiltzberg refused, and this led to a French invasion of Schiltzbergian territory. Schiltzberg lashed out against Napoleon's army with an army that was much stronger than the Emperor had anticipated, and Schiltzberg defeated Napoleon, winning crucial battles at Paris and Versailles. Schiltzberg occupied France for seven months and intended on claiming the entire territory of that nation for its own, but hostile Germany its allies were afraid of Schiltzberg becoming too powerful, and threatened to declare war if Schiltzberg claimed land south of the 47th parallel. Schiltzberg claimed all of France north of that latitude line, though it also ceded a large portion of the land to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, which had been an ally in the war, and the remaining territory became an independent government known as the Republic of France, which became a close ally of Schiltzberg in many crucial wars.

Late in that century, the German kingdoms began to centralize, making Germany a critical threat to Schiltzberg and all of Europe. In 1914, following the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, who was a leader in Germany's ally of Austria-Hungary, the German military broke a twenty year standoff with Schiltzberg and its allies by invading Belgium. The German military was so strong that it overtook the Belgian capital of Brussels after only 72 hours, slaughtering the royal family of Belgium and leaving Belgium and its allies, including Schiltzberg, stunned. Schiltzberg, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom of Great Britain, and the Republic of France all declared war on Germany within several days of this happening. The Allies acted fast to prevent the Germans from attacking further nations, and Luxembourg and Great Britain attacked German troops in Belgium, while Schiltzberg and France invaded German territory. The Germans fought back hard, and they were able to push through Belgium into Schiltzbergian territory, forcing Schiltzberg to retreat and defend its own border with Belgium. The Allies signed an agreement with the Russian Empire and the United States of America, and the reinforcements from these nations allowed the Allies to begin to push back the Central Powers, which were led by Germany. The Russians invaded Germany from the east, and the rest of the Allies closed in on Germany from the west, and finally were able to break back into German territory in March of 1916. The German capital was overtaken, and the government was overthrown, as Schiltzberg and its allies won the war in May of 1916. Schiltzberg claimed much of the western German territory, expanding its own empire significantly. Belgium was administered by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in an effort to restore its government, but the natives started a movement to be absorbed into Luxembourg, and a referendum was passed to absorb Belgium into Luxembourg in November of 1919. France, Great Britain were given the imperialist territories of Germany, and Russia was given the part of Germany that has been called Prussia. The Allies created a new, democratic government in Germany, much at the pushing of the United States and France, but much to the dismay of Schiltzberg, which wanted to create a new monarchy, preferably from their own royal family to create an alliance with the Germans. Peace was temporarily gained.

The Germans began to stir again, as they recovered from the horrible war. There was a strong economic depression, and this angered the Germans, who blamed the depression on Schiltzberg. In September of 1939, Germany invaded Schiltzberg and once again started a world war. Italy and Japan joined Germany in its conquest of world domination, as Italy aided Germany in its European and African conquests, and Japan led its own Pacific and Asian conquests. The Allies reassembled, as the Schiltzbergers and every other European nation except for Germany and Italy declared war on the Axis Powers, and the United States declared war on Japan after being attacked in December of 1941. The Germans showed early dominance in the war, gaining a lot of territory very quickly, and Schiltzberg was forced to temporarily move its government to Versailles, which was much farther west from the front line than New Schiltzbierg was. It was a good thing too, because New Schiltzbierg was overtaken, and the Germans claimed "East Schiltzberg" for their own. Schiltzberg was not defeated yet though, as they fought back with their allies and regained the land. Meanwhile, the Americans were fighting bitterly against the Japanese in the Pacific, recapturing island nations that had previously been taken by the Japanese. The Americans got involved in the African conquest after receiving a message from the Republic of Mexico that the Germans had offered Mexico an alliance if it would invade the United States. The Germans were winning the war in Europe, but then made the mistake of provoking Soviet Union, which had previously been known as Russia, and this almost immediately resulted in their beginning to lose ground. They had opened up another front of the war and were unable to maintain their efforts. Captured land was retaken by the allies, who closed in on rivaling Germany, and the Germans surrendered in January of 1944. The Allies were furious that they had allowed the Germans to continue to have a government after the first World War, and this time, they allowed Schiltzberg to annex what remained of German territory, as well as Switzerland and Austria, which had supported the German effort, wiping Germany off the map. The Soviet Union was allowed to annex the German satellite state of Poland, and France was allowed to annex North Italy, while the United Kingdom was given South Italy as an imperial territory. Great Britain later sold this territory to France for money in an alliance treaty. The United States was allowed to keep all of the island nations as its territories, and was also given a great amount of land in Africa that had previously belonged to Germany, but this land was lost to the independence movement over the next decade. The people of Luxembourg voted to be annexed by Schiltzberg in 1948 in a referendum, so this gave Schiltzberg control of most of central Europe.

In the 1950s, Schiltzberg adopted moderate socialism, and was seen as the moderate of European politics, with the Soviet Union as the extreme communist and Great Britain and France as extreme capitalists. It was good to have neutral Schiltzberg separating these powers, and this is what prevented another World War from happening.

In the dawn of the third millennium, many began to question the legitimacy of a monarchy, including Schiltzberg's own leader, Grand Duke Lucas I. On March 31, 2014, Lucas stepped down as Grand Duke and approved a democratic constitution into law that would allow for the election of the head of state, who was the President. This was Schiltzberg's form of government for forty years of relative peace and mediocrity, until a man named James Williams was elected President in 2046. Williams was an extremist who fought to create nationalism in the country and strengthen government in Schiltzberg, in the case of war. He invaded France, which had been Schiltzberg's ally, and won the war because of Schiltzberg's outrageous military spending. In the treaty that ended the war, Schiltzberg annexed all of the Italian Peninsula, greatly increasing its land area. Schiltzberg asserted its dominance, and became an imperial power when its navy invaded several islands off of the coast of Asia. Nationalism was at its peak in Schiltzberg, and Williams was elected to a second term in 1950. He continued his controversial policies in his second term, but received a blind eye from foreign powers, because they feared his military strength. In 1954, Williams was to be removed from office, due to a clause in the constitution that limited a President to two terms. Williams asked for an amendment to be passed that would allow him to serve a third term, but the legislature unanimously voted down this amendment. Williams was outraged, and declared that he would refuse to step down as President. The following day, the congress voted to impeach him, and the Justice Council called for an impeachment trial. WIlliams then had the military assassinate all members of congress and the Justice Council, and declared himself the Emperor of Schiltzberg. Emperor James, as he called himself, declared war on France once again, and invaded. France and all of its allies, including Great Britain and the United States declared war on the rebel government and wished to restore peace in Schiltzberg. The Soviet Union also declared war on Schiltzberg out of fear of invasion. After six months, the government was overthrown, and the Schiltz Dynasty was restored, with Lucas III, grandson of Lucas I, as the new Grand Duke. Now there have been two decades of peace since the ancient government was restored, and most Schiltzbergers live happily in peace.

For several seasons, Schiltzberg was the team to beat. Winning the WBC title in their debut season, they were legends right out of the game. From there, they missed the championship one year, but then won three in a row after that, becoming the youngest team to win four titles, and at the time, the only active team. Things were about to change though, as Schiltzberg's tying of the ancient (often thought unbeatable) four-championship record, stirred up a rising of the gone, but not forgotten legends Newmansitan. After refusing to play in the tournament for nearly twenty years, Newmanistan returned to the Classic, and things got much more competitive.

Schiltzberg had dominated the competition, but with another level of dominant teams, they simply could not maintain their dynasty. They slowly fell from dominance, finishing third two years in a row, and then finishing second the next year, and most recently, they finished in the round of sixteen. The decline of the team was largely blamed on manager Robert Evans, who refused to change the team's lineup for entirely superstitious reasons.

"We've won four titles with this lineup. Who knows what will happen if we change it." -- Robert Evans.

Following last season, which was quite possibly the team's most disappointing season yet, the executives decided to make some radical changes. Robert Evans was fired, though he was very graciously thanked for his service and commitment to his team, and he was replaced by Mathew Stuart. Stuart served as the manager of the Beyren Captains for twelve seasons and led them to five NBLS championships, seven conference titles, and ten division titles. He is considered the best current manager Schiltzberg has to offer, and though he has recently retired from managing in the NBLS, he has agreed to manage Schiltzberg's national team. Stuart has an advantage, since many of the players on the national team play for the Captains, including ace William McKey, center fielder Ducky Fitzhugh, left fielder Chris Vrooman, and first-year right fielder Steven Wilitzer. Stuart also brought his longtime coaching partner Phillip Anderson to the coaching team as the first base coach.

Joining the team, Stuart immediately made lots of changes to the roster. Fifteen of the players on the 25-man roster were removed and replaced, and Stuart believes that the new blood in the lineup will help liven up the team.

"As a longtime manager, there was really just one big problem that I could see with this team: boredom. The players hadn't had a change to the lineup in so many years that they simply weren't motivated to get out there and do anything. Quite frankly, a lot of the members that were on this roster simply were not good enough to play at this level anymore, and there is nothing wrong with that. They brought this team to four championship victories, and no one can take that away from them, but now it is time to give some new people a chance."

Needless to say, things are looking bright for the Schiltzbergers this season.

After 3 average tournaments, the Southern Bears blossomed in the IBS IX. The Southern Democratic States finished with a 5-3 record for 15 points in group A, tied with Frenline Delpha. Both teams had to play a tie breaker game for seeding. SDS lost the game 6-5 and had the 7th seed. They played against the #2 seed, the Bat Slaves. SDS won the series 2-1 against Gregoryisgodistan. SDS played the semi finals against Abanhfleft Revolution. The Bears lost the first game 9-2 but finally won the series 2-1. The Southern Democratic States was in the final against the United States of Devonta Thundersticks. Devonta won the first game 4-1 and the Bears won the next one 9-4. Devonta won the 3rd game 5-4 and SDS won the next one 3-2. In the 5th and final game of the IBS IX final, the Bears won 4-1!

Then the Southern Bears was missing in action until the team comes back for the XI olympiad as part of the North Eurasian Unified Sporting Team but short of their female players, the Bears didn't qualified with an atrocious 0-4 record. Then, the Southerners finished 4th in group A with a 13-17 record in the World Baseball Classic 37. In the World Baseball Classic 28, the Southern Democratic States had a crazy finish in Bulter Group where 3 teams were tied with 45 points but only two teams advanced to the playoffs. South Yerfilag were the unlucky ones. The Bears faced an unranked team in the round of 16, but this unranked team was Newmanistan who were coming back after being absent for many seasons. Newmanistan beat the SDS in 3 games.

In 2018, every North Eurasian nations (but Pays den haut) united together to form a socialist superstate. The new federation has been named the Union of Socialist Alpine Republics, this federation, composed with 30 socialist republics, inherits SDS's rank. To read more about the "creation" of the U.S.A.R., read this story. In it's first participation in the WBC as the U.S.A.R., the team finished in 1st place in Darmen group with 20 wins and 10 losses. The Bisons played against the infamous Musterfield in the 1st round and our pitchers struck out a lot of batters. The Alpine Union won the series 3-1. In the quarter finals, the Reprezentacja Alpejski lost 3-1 against Ethane. Then, in the WBC 40, the U.S.A.R. finished 2nd in group 5, tied with Zwangzug with a 17-13 record, but the Zebras won the tie break and the Bisons didn't qualify for the playoffs. In the WBC 41, the Alpine Union finished 2nd in group 5 but got swept by Newmanistan in 3 games in the round of 16.

The West Phoenician Confederates are back for the World Baseball Classic #42.

After a disappointing results in the WBC #41 that saw West Phoenicia bow out in the round of 16 after losing game 5 to host nation The Equestrian States; West Phoenicia is back with a desire and drive to take out the whole competition.

While the coaching staff have not changed, Coach Jacob Prosper has been put on notice. Nothing short of a Semi final will see him keep his job. Sources in the West Phoenician baseball world believe they acted to fast in replacing former coach Mary Zambodia who led the Confederates to two quarter finals and an Olympic gold medal.

There have been minor changes to the roster, with a number of seasoned players retiring.

Glen Melbourne, Heniel Hewett and Jimmy Geelong all had the honour of moving from the bench/reservists to frontlines.

Kevin Dances joins the Confederates as the new Short Stop after a successful career in the West Phoenician National League where he played for the Titania Jaguars for 3 seasons.

Scottie Blues, Ricky Sharma, both from the Jackson Monarcs. Gavin Tong former plater of the New Rome Moons and Arron Queens from the Poltheisa Heaven Rainbows join the bench.

While Ashwyn Sid, former pitcher of the WPNBL with the Selene Valley Hummingbirds and Pedro Timms of the Blessed City Saints join the pitching rotation.

With the added edition of players from established West Phoenician National Baseball League members peppered in with seasoned Confederate players, this season promises to be a good one for the Confederates.

Ferret Civilization Ferrets

World Baseball Classic #42. It had been a long time since the old team that the nation had put together had played in, well baseball in general. Starting off rather poorly finishing Third in Group G in the International Baseball Slam X, being outscored by the team from Oisinistan thus starting off with a loss at the start of it all. The team would then go on to finish Fifth in Group 2 in the World Baseball Classic #35 only to go onto finishing slightly better with a Fourth in Group A for the World Baseball Classic #36. While they were slowly improving with just how less they lost by they were still facing all losses overall and the nation's sporting experiment was not doing all that well in other events either. Leading to for the most part for the experiment to be cut to decide just what they were going to do about that, and for the most part the answer was nothing.

Though the experiment was not forgotten about, and with recent events in the nation showing that they really would not succeed anywhere they should just get happy with that. While there was a movement to just completely shut themselves back in they could not afford to that fully just yet. So the government decided to pull back together their old teams and let the players have fun for a few more events before mostly likely withdrawing forever. No one expected the team to win, the players would not have to try, only to enjoy themselves and relive the experience they got to have when first going out into the greater world.

For anyone who does not know, this nation is not a Human one, though since the public fact books for information are being rewritten at a snails pace here is just a basic get to try and visualize what a Ferret looks like. It's pretty much just an anthropomorphic ferret, very descriptive right. They stand anywhere from around the high two feet to low three feet range, or around a meter, or around half the height of an adult Human... Whatever unit of measure measurement one uses.

But there is a chance right, you want to do something wacky and out there, I'll sure enjoy reading it whether it be good or bad.

The Bulletin: Arnao is back for his third WBC as manager of the Lumai despite a poor showing in WBC 41. There is doubt that the team can wrangle together a better performance than last time around, and whispers have begun circulating that Vaian baseball will only ever have one heyday. Koilani Ruputuo, the last remaining starter from the WBC 23 team, has delayed his retirement to try to get the Lumai back to the playoffs one last time.

(OOC note: The pairing of given names and surnames from mismatched languages is intentional. I want to clarify that this is intentional because I know how annoying it is when people write about Asian characters without actually knowing any Asian languages and completely botch all the names, like suddenly every girl in East Asia is named some variant on "Mei.")

Normal Batting Order:
1. Patel
2. Qiu
3. Xi
4. Chawa
5. S. Sherpa
6. Chao
7. Gurung
8. Liang
9. Pitcher's slot

Batting Order For Games With DH:

1. Patel
2. Qiu
3. Xi
4. Chawa
5. Tsang
6. S. Sherpa
7. Chao
8. Gurung
9. Liang

Tsang is our default DH, but it's not that unusual for Xi or S. Sherpa to DH and then Tsang will take their place in the field. Or sometimes Morrison will DH.

Home Stadium:

Welcome to Syangboche Athletic Complex, home of the Khumbu Icefall Doctors and the Sherpa Imperial Baseball Museum. The stadium seats 43,800 and offers a wide variety of concessions. Swing by the Backstop BBQ for hotdogs, burgers, and a full selection of craft beers, or visit Lhotse Love for a taste of hearty traditional Himalayan cuisine. The Imperial Baseball Museum is open from 9AM to 6PM and admission is free. Stop by before the game to learn about the history of baseball in the Sherpa Empire and see the nation's largest collection of baseball memorabilia. Syangboche is located at an elevation of 3780m (12,402 ft). Visiting teams who are not accustomed to high altitudes are advised to arrive in advance of their games so that players have time to acclimate to the altitude.

Travel advisory: Although the Sherpa Empire prides itself on our culture of hospitality, we can't control the weather or the atmospheric pressure. If you have known respiratory problems, please watch the game online at sisn.she/video or follow your own nation's television coverage. Many ambulances, hospital rooms, and aircraft are not equipped with TVs or wifi. You will miss the action if you have to be medically evacuated for altitude sickness. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

(Syangboche is the name of the stadium, not the city where it is located. The city is Lukla-Namche.)

The New Sangti Indios
Official Roster for the World Baseball Classic 42

Information
Nation Name: New Sangti
Trigramme: TRB (taken from predecessor nation, The Royal Barangay)
Stadium: Estadio Beisbol de Sangti (cap. 45,000)
Ballpark Modifier: 90
Style Modifier: -1
Location: Ciudad Nuevo Sangti

A Nation Underground
Unlike the predecessor nations of Sangti and The Royal Barangay, the nation of New Sangti is hidden from the depths of Esportiva. It is only accessible from an underground tunnel in nearby Isla Nespa, an island southeast of the former mainland. This island can be accessed by small airplanes; however they must time their flight right as only red eye flights (those past 12 midnight up to 4 am) can arrive on the island. This is due to the island being off-limits and in a no-fly zone in daylight. This is due to fears that radioactive levels in the mainland are very high.

Upon arriving in the tunnel, an alternative ecosystem can be found underground, with supply of water and electricity abundant from underground heat generating energy that can be converted to electricity.

Arriving teams in New Sangti can request for van for hire that will take them to Nuevo Sangti, the new capital of the nation. It will take around 5 to 6 hours from the portal in Isla Nespa to Nuevo Sangti, depending on traffic.

Nova Anglicana WBC 42 Roster

Nickname: Lions
Acronym: NOV

Stadium

Stadium: Archbishop Stadium
Stadium Location: Londinium (capital), Newfoundland and Labrador
Stadium Capacity: 35,000
Distance to Walls: 315 to right with a high wall, 421 to right-center, 408 to straightaway center, 385 to left-center, 336 to left
Stadium Surface: Natural grass
Park Factor: 82, Archbishop Stadium is quite the pitcher's park

Archbishop Stadium is the home stadium of the Londinium Capitols as well as the Nova Anglican national team. It is big and it plays big, with a serious nighttime marine layer, an enormous right-center gap known as "Triples Alley" and an imposing right field wall. It's not as hard on right-handed hitters, but is a fly ball pitcher's paradise. Many people are seen in the bay outside of the stadium attempting to catch home runs hit into the water or simply cruising the bay while enjoying the sound of the game on the radio.

Starting Rotation (order as given)
RHP #44 Damon Singleton, 30 - fastball at 92-96, peaks at 98; very good slider out-pitch; change-up is okay, good control
LHP #20 Darren Lawson, 29 - primary pitch is a cutter at 92-93, also has a big curve, a sweet changeup, and a decent slider; good control and strikeout numbers
RHP #36 Ben Clayton, 27 - combines 96 MPH fastball with 81 MPH hammer curveball, developed a decent change and slider, strikes out a ton and walks a ton
LHP #19 Nate McLaughlin, 27 - out of nowhere prospect has rocketed to ROY and back-to-back sub-3.00 ERA seasons, fastball 90-92, with sharp curve and sweeping slider, tricky changeup as well
RHP #56 Damian Ryan, 27 - plus fastball at 93-95 with a good curveball, decent changeup and fringy slider; definite punch-out ability, but needs to get motion and walks under control; tall, slim frame

Bullpen
LHP #57 Thomas Wagner, 30 - tall and solidly built at 6'5, 220 pounds; 91 MPH fastball is only average, but has a good curveball and screwball, changeup and cutter are league average as well
LHP #48 Will Thornton, 33, - sharp control plus a 96+ MPH fastball, decent change, fringy curveball
LHP #46 Grant Holmes, 34 - lefty specialist with a good slider, tall at 6'7
RHP #38 Sean Fletcher, 31 - 7th inning guy, hard fastball with run, secondary pitch is a knuckle curve
RHP #16 Chris Yates, 31 - fastball sits 95 and can touch 98 when he needs it to, combines it with a good slider and a change-of-pace 12-6 curve, good changeup,
RHP #11 Matthew Drake, 29 - combines 95 MPH fastball with 80 MPH changeup, decent curve,
RHP #30 Lee Bradley, 29 - fastball 87-88 with a good amount of run, sharp slurve at 82 plus a decent changeup; submarine arm angle gets him a lot of outs, but stuff is legit
RHP #43 Casey Burke, 30 - former 9th round draft pick has burst on to the scene for Newfield, 150/48 K/BB ratio in 118 innings over past two years, fastball at 94-96, great changeup at 82, pretty decent hook as well
RHP #23 Nick Christensen, 28 - failed starter, but posted otherworldly 1.13 ERA last year as a reliever, combines 98 MPH fastball with 88 MPH slider

C #60 Gabe Roberson, 32 (R/R) - big arm and data say he's one of the best at framing pitches, hit tool getting better
C #18 Chris Floyd, 29, (R/R), - great bat for a catcher but still struggles with taking walks and avoiding strikeouts; good arm behind the plate but not very mobile, game-calling skills better now
C #51 Max Pope, 26, (S/R) - whiz kid defensively behind the plate, showed flashes of power last year and has a great eye

1B #21 Jake Bryan, 24, (L/L) - Bryan is a polished college player who won ROY and challenged for MVP, great eye, superb defender, natural hitter with good power, speed and arm are below-average
3B #50 Seth Armstrong, 32, (R/R), - Armstrong has light-tower power and a strong arm, defense is only average, improved his average
SS #11 Brendan Wood, 31, (R/R) - hit tool is good, with both moderate power and good average, takes his fair share of walks as well, defense has really improved
2B #6 John Carr, 31, (R/R) - this guy is a human highlight reel, with amazing ball flips, over-the-shoulder catches, diving stops, and sweet double plays, can take a walk and hit some doubles, moderate speed as well, hitting for average has improved to get him this spot
3B #26 Karl Austin, 28, (S/R) - somewhat of a bad ball hitter; has upped his walks; decent fielder with above-average arm
SS #25 Sam Duncan, 28, (R/R), - leads with the hit tool, good power and moderate speed; solid .280 hitter, takes his fair share of walks and plays solid if unspectacular defense

OF #24 Ty Oliver, 35, (R/R) - Oliver is a freak of an athlete who has refined his game, massive power and speed with an amazing arm
OF #35 Michael Holt, 31, (R/R) - only below-average tool is arm strength; has above-average speed and power; walks well and has cut down on strikeouts; defense has gotten a lot better
OF #29 Moses Deng, 28, (S/R) - speed is 80 on the 20-80 scale, arm is above-average, hit tool is average, fielding is above-average, power is below average, has only been playing baseball since 15, but now good enough to start on NT
OF #27 Ryan Glover, 28 (R/R) - 6-4, 225 pound frame, collects doubles in bunches with decent homers; strikeouts and walks galore; excellent defender and great arm
OF #40 Chris Townsend, 30, (L/L) - defense is above-average with average arm; speed is a tick above average; a player who can play any outfield position; he can hit for average, defend, and take a walk, massive leap forward to get this job

Greg Richardson #47 (Pitching Coach)
