WBC IGT: Mexico @ United States, 3/7

[Guest Edgy DC]

Karim the Stream Garcia leads off with a single off of Jake Peavy.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Jorge Cantu erases him on an A-Rod-Utley-Lee DP.

[Willets Point]

The USA uniforms are fugly.

[Willets Point]

Go USA...oh wait, it's Capt. Intangibles.

[seawolf17]

Or, if you prefer, the BP jersey:

[Willets Point]

Lopez fans A-Rod. Vamos Mexico!

It sounds like the crowd in Phoenix is partisan to Mexico.

[Willets Point]

Until Derrek Lee goes Kaboom to put USA up 1-0.

[Willets Point]

Johnny Shavedman legs out a triple. Another MFY at bat.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Is it wrong that I really want Jeter, A-Rod & Damon to tweak something and miss the first month or two of the season?

[Willets Point]

Yea. Understandable, but wrong.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Still 2-0 in the ninth.

When Damon tripled, the announcers pretty much chalked up a run for the US with Jeter coming up, and declared how the scenario of an extra-base hit for Damon with Jeter coming up must really whet the appetite of Yankee fans. Naturally, the runner scored not.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Juan Castro makes the first of Mexico's last three outs.

Rally caps on, Mexico fans. Let's get Castilla up.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Karim gets called for swinging for merely cocking his gun. Boo.

[Guest Edgy DC]

He gets called for another (less dubious) half swing on a ball in the dirt. Two out.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Cantu pops to Utley. Game ova.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

My eyes caught fire when I scrolled down to the BP jersey.

That's some powerful red.

[soupcan]

soupcan, Jr. got this one when we were down south...




If nothing else it will get my caucasian, Westport, Connecticut kid free passage through Central Park during the Puerto Rican Day Parade.
