WBC Semifinal Showdown, Vasil’s Elbow Update, Suzuki Imaging
In the World Baseball Classic, Italy (4-0) faces Venezuela in the semifinals to determine who Team USA will meet in the final after USA’s win over the Dominican Republic; White Sox right-hander Mike Vasil is undergoing elbow-soreness evaluation, with additional tests to map out his path forward; Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki will undergo imaging, and if he misses time, Conforto, Carlson, or Matt Shaw could fill in at right field.
