WBC Live Game Day Thread
Hey, so I was hoping there would be some people here watching the WBC, which I have found to be very entertaining so far. I know Korea is down pretty badly right now, 8-2, but their hitters seem to all have great fundamental approaches and some of them really do have the size and bat speed to make it in the majors. They have some SERIOUS pop too. Even though he gave up 8 ERs in 1l.1 IP, I was still impressed with the Korean lefty starter, who seemed to have pretty good stuff but suffered through some of the worst game calling I have ever seen by a catcher. I think Korea has the type of hitting (and on-base ) skills necessary to move on deep into the tourney. Of course, you have to like Japan here, because their team is stacked with great players such as Ichiro, Aki, Dice-K, Yu Darvish, and all the rest of them. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the game goes...

So, when I watch a game, I see athletic ability, timing, and luck.
When RJ watches again you see numbers and figures like John Nash? Am I right?

Wow Netherlands love being disrepsected
Reminds me of Gonzaga a few years back
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
Aybar is 90 feet away from coming back to camp
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
Aybar boots it and he is coming back to camp!!
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
So yeah, is that Pedoria injury serious?
I don’t cheer for injuries but I am not in tears about him being injured.
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
I am not cheering against USA
but Netherlands had a chance to get us Aybar AND Howell back but they look awful tonight.
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
Howell hasn't even appeared in like a week.

Yeah, I think there was a long ass list of guys
that they have basically forgotten about. Thorton had such a long break that his 98 mph heater was hitting 92
Evan Longoria and David Price - the fight for my heart
Bring in Howell for the 9th
I wanna clarification he is still alive
