Yeah, I'm not lookin' for the U.S. to win it either, nor do I want them to. I really hope Japan wins it or Korea. Those tow teams play baseball how it should be played, small ball. Instead of waitin' for big Barry to step up and relyin' on the top of their orders everyone makes somethin' happen. Stealin', bunts, hit and runs, both teams do it all and with great precision. I really wish there was a way to watch their leagues over here. I know I'd definitely can wathin' MLB games, Braves aside, if we could choose to watch Asian baseball.
When the U.S. played the Netherlands it was just pathetic on the Netherlands side. They played worse ball than U.S. high school teams. Simple mistakes like not properly judgin' fly balls after a bounce and fence bounces cost them 3 runs and a bad cut-off mistake cost them another run. That's not includin' the people who scored off base hits after these simple mistakes, just the run it cost them in the process of the mistake. Simply pathetic. Had it not been for so many careless mistakes I think they'd have played better ball all around and the game would have been a lot closer if not endin' with them winnin' as they just seemed to self-destruct afterward. Grown men shouldn't make those mistakes, they were little league mistakes at best.
I was watchin' Cuba and Mexico earlier today and saw somethin' kind of ironic to me. The team doctor for Cuba is Fidel Castro's son, haha. Another funny tid-bit on that, the man looks like a white American. I bet momma had a go with the milk man on vacation.
