Freddy pitches a 1-2-3 first against the Italians. 15 pitches, 12 strikes, 1 K.

Ew. Game over. Canada wins. f*** Canada. Oh well, if the US beats South Africa and Canada beats Mexico, the US will still advance.

Stern finally misses one. The tying run to the plate, with 2 outs.

Holy mother of God what a huge catch by Stern.

Great play by Francoeur, and also Utley. 6 more outs, US down 2.

Gracias

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Mar 8, 2006 -> 05:30 PM) Stern is really making his case here. How do you feel about Mr. Stern? Afterall, it's most likely either Stern or Harris for that final roster spot... Wille is a better rapper But really Stern has looked impressive as hell today both at the plate and in CF. Any reports on Willie so far from camp?

What a play by Utley

3 to play, US still down 2.

US threatens, fails to score. End of 4, 7-0

QUOTE(MarlinFan84 @ Mar 8, 2006 -> 11:52 AM) You can have Webber, I'll take Lowery. Lol, DEAL.

7-0 Canada...WOW

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 8, 2006 -> 04:17 PM) What's the tie-breaker if there is a 3-way tie? That could be important for the US. Unless the unthinkable happens and they don't turn this game around and follow it with a loss to South Africa, the US would be 2-1. IF Mexico then beat Canada, that would leave those 3 countries in a 3-way tie. It's academic if Canada beats Mexico too, but what if that doesn't happen? Anyone know? So if the US, Mexico, and Canada tied I would assume tiebreaker 1 would be meaningless. So the US would be best served to not give up many runs the rest of this game even if they don't comeback.

I don't really see how this is a bad trade. Baj wasn't gonna get a shot here so we sent him somewhere where he might get a shot. He wasn't in the plans, losing him doesn't hurt the Sox at all.

Great great play by the RF. Inning over as Pablo was about 3 miles from 2B.

Nice catch by Ryan Sweeney

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 8, 2006 -> 03:40 PM) It's ST. I know that's not what I'm saying. How they hell do you triple 3 times in 2 innings, that's just bizarre.

Somehow that ball stayed in play, Inning over

Wild Pitch, 5-2

US down 2-0, Top of the 2nd Dontrelle Willis has allowed 3 triples...WTF?

PK fouls off two good pitches to hit then K's on crap

Time for a PK grand slam

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Mar 8, 2006 -> 03:34 PM) But people still want to see him out there. Just go to the Bulls board at basketballbords.net to see what I mean. Gordon's a hero, Chandler's a bust, Hinrich is overrated, we miss Eddy Curry soooo much, etc. That's some quality basketball talk right there. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ can't take that play anymore.

Panama ties it in on a HBP US losing 1-0 early
