Former Arizona IF Justin Wylie helps Great Britain qualify for World Baseball Classic

Justin Wylie never got to play in the NCAA tournament in college, but now he gets to compete for a world championship.

The former Arizona infielder has helped Great Britain qualify for the 2023 World Baseball Classic, the first time it has made the international event.

Great Britain went 3-0 in the qualifier tourney, with Wylie batting .
