The WBC is the first international baseball tournament for national teams to feature professional players from the major-leagues; the Summer Olympics have regularly featured college and minor-league players because the Games conflict with the major league season, and the World Cup of Baseball historically has not had major leaguers participate. In addition to providing a format for the best baseball players in the world to compete against one another while representing their home countries, the World Baseball Classic was created in order to further promote the game around the globe.
