It's kind of funny that Willie has been so accomodating to the Red Sox wishes of playing in the outfield and the dreaded short stop position which he refused to give a try with the White Sox.

 

Still, I love a guy like this:

 

"He had me down 0-2, [and] I thought he was going to throw me a curveball," Harris said. "[but] he mixed it up with another fastball for a ball [to make the count 1-2]. Then he came back with another curveball in the dirt, [running the count to] 2-2. And now I'm thinking, 'You know, he doesn't want to go 3-2 on me, because he doesn't want to take a chance to walk me.' So right now in my mind, I'm getting ready to hit, right here. He's throwing 98 miles an hour, so you better get ready. got a pitch that I could handle, and I got good wood on it. It was outstanding. Outstanding."

What channel is the Italy game on?

 

On a sidenote, that 8th inning was a joke. Two major league hitters went swinging at garbage in between a pair of walks.

 

Utley hammered that, what a nice catch. Still, USA better rebound against South Africa.

What channel is this game?  If its on dpeortes  ,  do we get deportes on in chicago for Comcast?  :huh

Not on TV 'til 10:30.

 

 

(This is one reason the WBC should have been on a different time or a different TV station, to avoid conflicts with College Basketall in a month in which it traditionally dominates.)

Italy is on ESPN at 10:30 tonight I believe.

 

 

And even if they do rebound against South Africa(Who sadly actually came closer to beating Canada than we did), do we still advance? I'm guessing it would be a three way tie.
