Biographical Information

Juan Elorza was on the Argentinian national team in the 2022 World Baseball Classic Qualifiers. In his lone outing, he replaced Thomas Cuenca in the fifth with a 5-0 deficit against host Panama. He retired Rodrigo Orozco Jr. but then the next six batters reached: Carlos Sanchez doubled, Edgar Muñoz was plunked, Allen Córdoba hit a two-run double, Rubén Tejada smacked a RBI double, Jonathan Araúz walked and L.J. Jones singled. Carlos Gimenez took over and all three inherited runners would score, leaving Elorza with a 162.00 ERA. In the qualifiers, only Jake Rabinowitz (189.00) had a higher ERA among hurlers who got an out but six pitchers were at infinite (Kevin Townend, Kenjiro Sugiura, Keive Rojas, Ryota Okumoto, Eugene Gay and Armando Dueñas Jr.). The Czechs still won a spot in the 2023 World Baseball Classic, their first World Baseball Classic.
