[gotbeer]

Great interview with Junior.  

[bloodbrother]

Taillon has some nasty stuff.

[gotbeer]

Chance for the US.

[CanadianHalo]

I think this is where it starts to head south

[jshep]

Oh dear god, another bunt.

[jshep]

Oh, thanks Canada!

[gotbeer]

Error and a run.  Might be a big inning for the US.

[gotbeer]

Tie.

"More games are lost by teams losing or making mistakes"

 

Awesome analysis. Keep up the great commentary.

Awesome analysis. Keep up the great commentary. 

In a related story, games are often won by scoring 1 or more runs more than the team you're competing against.

[jshep]

Shane Victorino move continues to pay big dividends for Torre.

"More teams are lost by losing or making mistakes"

Awesome analysis. Keep up the great commentary.

Yesterday they compared the game morneau was having while "playing under the weather" to Jordans "flu game" thought that was a bit much

[Kenny]

Time to get our revenge for the 2010 winter olympics hockey gold medal game!

F'n Crosby...

Americans care a fraction of the amount about the WBC than Canadians cared about that game. And they care even less about the WBC.

We were the better team in that tournament, anyway. Nearly flawless until the Gold medal game. But I digress.

Jose Mota?

That's like saying Russia was the better team in 1980 anyways.  Instead, the heart of the team created probably the best game in US History, ever.  

[gotbeer]

They keep showing this Bud Clysdale commercial.  And I'm still not tired of watching it.  

[Chuck]

Score? I'm on the road.

[gotbeer]

Are the Angels going with a blue brimmed cap this season?  New Era showed a commercial touting the new features of their cap, and used the Angels one with the blue on the brim of the cap.

 

[jshep]

That blue brim hat is just the ST/BP cap.

[gotbeer]

Score? I'm on the road.

 

 

2-2 in the top of the 6th.

[jshep]

Score? I'm on the road.

2-2 in the Top of the 6th.

[gotbeer]

Bot of 6th.  Canada has man on first and second.  no outs.

[gotbeer]

Canada scores a run.  3-2 

[Richard]

Jeff Passan:

 

If Team USA loses this game to Canada, it loses an automatic bid to 2017. Amazing but true: The U.S. will have to win a four-team qualifier.

[gotbeer]

Leadoff hit for the US.

 

Whoever loses this game will finish in last place for the Pool.  That team will have to qualify for the Next WBC.
