WBC Glory or Hidden Curse? The Shocking Truth Behind MLB Stars’ Post-Tournament Performance Slumps
“It was the best experience of my life,” the Red Sox leader in homers (10) and RBIs (30) said. “Playing in the WBC, playing for your country, playing for (28) million people (in Venezuela) means a lot to me. I enjoyed every single second. It was all for Venezuela and it wasn’t about Willson Contreras. It was about Venezuela and the whole country. I’m just so proud of the team they created and the family we created and I’m just so I’m happy that I became a WBC champion.”
Contreras’ Red Sox teammate Roman Anthony was on the losing side of the championship game, but he hasn’t let that overshadow what he considers to be the experience of a lifetime while playing for Team USA. Moreso than the games, Anthony said it was the team dinners, late-night strategy sessions and quick camaraderie that left a mark on him from the WBC.
