The World Baseball Classic (WBC) team represented the only three Black American players left on the roster for the United States team, three of whom just happen to not be white. This is a point of contention as MLB continues to find talent outside of America and places where Black American talent can be found. Despite this, MLB's African-American population, which was at its highest at its peak at the height of its peak in 1967, has dropped to 28.5%, a percentage that remains close to the same as the 2019 season began. The World Baseball Championship (WSBC) tournament was put together by the USA in 2005 to showcase America's dominance and to showcase its dominance. However, this only affects the American ball player of non-white, non-rural living and non-US privileged descent. The Netherlands has more players of color on their WBC roster and coaching staff than America.
