    Mike Timlin gets to be the mensch as he allows a hit on his first pitch. Go South Africa score some runs.
  2. Willets Point
    I think Clemens should be a good sport and let them score 3 runs in the bottom of the 5th.

Derek "Rocket" Jeter is actually still pitching for the US. Just struck out two batters back-to-back in the 4th and will probably come back out for the 5th.

    Commissioner Jeter says they will not schedule in November (unfortunately) or during the season (thankfully). Says March is really the only time the WBC can be played.

    Baseball Commissioner Derek Jeter being interviewed right now and getting his butt kissed.

    While watching this dull game, learn a bit about the South African team from this interesting article.

Later Free spliffs for everyone! Yes, I know that's a terrible stereotype of the Dutch, but I'm also the guy who thought it was funny to make a "dyke" joke in the header.

    Can he roundhouse kick Chuck Norris?
  9. Willets Point
    "Dyke" is an acceptable variant of "dike". http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=dyke

    Yea that's what I was trying to get at. Former Met farmhand Robert Eenhoorn coaching for the Netherlands.
  11. Willets Point
    So the Netherlands squad has players from Curacao and other Dutch possesions, but the US possesion Puerto Rico competes seperately. This is odd. I'm not against it, but it is odd.
  12. Willets Point
    The Dutch have an early 5-0 lead in this matchup of winless Pool C teams.

    I have balls of steel.

    I was refering to division and league championships as well.

    Yeah, boo-fucking-hoo. He let greed overule his conscience and thus stabbed in the back the franchise that he'd been with from the beginning, who stood by him after he lost 17 games in his first season, where he won championships and where the fans loved him. I bet he cried all the way to the bank.

    Flash Gordon. Never saw it but in college some of my friends went around saying "Bring meeeeeee ... the bore worms!"
  18. Willets Point
    Mexico up 3-0 in the first. This is good from the perspective of Team USA.

    You know something, this is the greatest upset in the history of the World Baseball Classic.
  22. Willets Point
    I'm curious what the reaction among fans, players etc. would be to a USA first-round elimination: 1) Our national pride is wounded, we MUST, MUST win the next one to regain our pride. The USA spends a lot of time training a superteam and the next WBC becomes a flag-waving drama followed across the country. or 2) The whole WBC is stupid and this just goes to prove it. Even the USA players didn't care and it only mattered to some mamby-mamby small country that won the thing. This should be the final nail in this failed experiment's coffin. Probably somewhere in-between. I can't root against the USA completely, but if an underdog is going to win it's much more interesting if the knock off the USA in the semis or the finals so I hope our boys make it through group play at least.

    Leiter taken out with runners on 2d & 3d and 1 out. And Matt Stairs hits a single to drive them in. Canada up 7-0 in the 4th. Boos from the stands. Announcers talking about mercy rule!!!
  24. Willets Point
    Larry Walker is a coach not a player. Interesting. I think he's the marquis name for Team Canada.
  25. Willets Point
    Alois on the mound for the US.
