Well the Toronto Blue Jays play in the World Series, and have in fact won it more than once (about 1992-1994'ish I believe).
So that's US, Japan and Canada then

Toronto Blue Jays won back-to-back titles in the early 1990s, the Montreal Expos (who also play many home games in Puerto Rico) also feature. However, don't assume all the players are Americans. There are a large number of Latin American players in the Major Leagues as well as Japanese, Koreans, Canadians and even one-or-two from such baseball hotspots as Italy and Australia. Baseball is the leading summer sport across Latin America as well as in Japan and Korea - it is the leading sport in such nations as Cuba and the Dominican Republic (both of which are heavily represented in the Major Leagues).
However, the 'World Series' title of course dates from a period when all the teams and nearly all the players were from the US (and White America at that) so the point is valid if oft-recycled...
