The 2nd World Baseball Classic was hosted by the first Champions, Az-cz. 25 teams split into 5 groups of 5 made up the first round of Group play. In Group Play all matches were at each team's home stadium/stadia. Each team played a home/away game vs. the other teams in the group for each of the first two rounds. The top two teams from each group plus the 2 best 3rd placed records advanced to the 2nd round of pool play which will be 3 groups of 4. The four group winners then advanced to the semis in Az-cz. The semifinals were best 2-of-3 games while the finals were best 3-of-5.
(Please note for ERA purposes, any game that ended with the home team winning in the bottom of the 9th or later, that inning was counted as 1/2 an inning for the raod team.) Teams in Blue have advanced to the 2nd round.
