Japan came from behind twice to defeat Mexico 6-5 on Monday and set up a World Baseball Classic final showdown with the United States.
Munetaka Murakami drove in a two-run double in the bottom of the ninth inning as Japan came back from a 5-4 deficit to reach Tuesday’s final in Miami against the USA.
Japan are chasing a record third World Baseball Classic crown after winning the tournament in 2006 and 2009.
