[edit] Article name

I noticed that the International Baseball Federation refers to this series as the "Baseball World Cup." (See [1].) With Google, "Baseball World Cup" received 23,700 hits, compared to 841 for "World Cup of Baseball."

Would anyone object if I were to request a move of this article to "Baseball World Cup"? BRMo 03:27, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

That seems to make sense. Sylvain1972 14:16, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

World Cup of Baseball → Baseball World Cup — This is the name used by the sponsor, the International Baseball Federation, and used in most references to the tournament. BRMo 00:00, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
