Now when Venezuela gets hit for 10 runs in the first inning everyone will know which team to hate

That was not a bad prognostication

[FRENCHREDSOX]

This tourney should replace ALL star weekend 1 year in 4 it would be better & promote the game world wide

BTW Korea WINS it all!!

Jon Miller and Joe Morgan calling this game..

Don't you mean Jon Miller and Steve Phillips?

[Joe12Pack]

According to Morgan, the U.S. will win on account of "mental toughness." He didn't happen to provide an analysis of the mental state of the Japanese team, but he has assured us that the Americans have the utmost of mental toughness due to a number of injuries to some of their players.

Better than Steve Phillips at least

[KowboyKoop]

Why is Oswalt still in this game??? He should've been out three or four batters ago, easily.

Davey Johnson has been AWFUL this tourney.....

[OregonDuck1989]

Gah. Come on ump. That pitch was way outside.

[OldFatGuy]

Adam Dunn done did what Adam Dunn does. Streeeerike Threeee!

[ewing6]

[OldFatGuy]

Yeah that wright ball was outside

Yes it was.

On another note.

When does the world ask the question that is bothering me.

What are the Asians doing that the rest of the world isn't?

Has Korea or Japan even lost a SINGLE GAME to a non-Asian team???

I know they both lost to each other, but that may be their only losses. (Sorry, I just don't know, not up to date on the whole tournament).

If that's the case, doesn't that mean that maybe, just maybe, there's something to be learned there?

Well they've both only had like 2 or 3 games against non Asian teams since the opening round for them was against only Asian teams.

[DarthJaker]

Man were toast Come Jeter get a hit and bring up Rollins to bomb one for the a 6-4 game.

[200tang]

Oh, you know what else I just thought of. Doesn't the WBC take place during Japan's season?

[200tang]

Oh, also, were there any players for either country that opted not to play? It seems like the players for those teams actually care more about the tournament than any other country so they end up with their best players and not just the best mixed in with the guys they had to use. Just going off the top of my head for Venezuela who had to send out Carlos Silva they could have used Santana or Zambrano.
