The 2024 WBSC Premier 12 tournament started yesterday and I was fortunate enough to be able to catch at least part of all three games. I noticed while watching that each game featured one pitcher with NPB experience. Alberto Baldonado (Yomiuri 2023-present) was the losing pitcher for Panama in their 9-8 walk off loss to the Netherlands. Spencer Patton (DeNA 2017-20) threw a perfect inning in Team USA's 1-0 loss to Puerto Rico, striking out all three batters he faced. Manny Banuelos (2023 Rakuten) was the starting (and losing) pitcher for Mexico against Venezuela. Here's a card of each of them:
