Buehrle>Wood

Oh....My...God...

Signs have now been banned from the WBC.

Griffey just picked up RBI number 7.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 09:14 PM) Is there?? Yes.

Wow. 16-0 in the top of the 3rd. Mercy Rule will be in full effect. Griffey has 6 RBI's so far.

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 09:38 AM) Thank you kind sir. Good job.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 02:17 PM) The WBC is definitely a joke. I just don't get how you can take it seriously. In the PHT forum, a lot of people are in the camp that it's just ST, and the players are just getting their work in, etc. You can't just turn around and expect that much more from anyone in this fake tournament. It's their ST too. That's why this thing is never going to work. MLB's season is too long (not that I'm complaining) for this to ever work. Tell that to the Domican, or Venezuela.

Clemens is going to take the mound for his first appearance of the WBC and maybe one of his last ever. US is in a must win situation, but they should be able to pick up the easy W and move on. I don't believe there is any live TV again. GameDay Here

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 10, 2006 -> 01:22 AM) All the US has to do now is beat RSA and they advance, no matter the outcome of this game. Canada will have to score 2 runs then, which may be a problem with Loaiza on the mound.

Also, can we please just have multiple WBC threads. Seems stupid to just have one.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Mar 9, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) Im pretty sure its a different Delucci playing for italy not the one from the Rangers. The game update thing said David. It must have been a mistake.

That one hurt.

I would just love either a sig or a wall of the WBC, preferably of the US team. Any player would be fine too. It dowsn't have to be anything great. A quickie will do just fine since I can't rep it for long.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 6, 2006 -> 08:31 PM) http://www.usatoday.com/sports/columnist/h...-hiestand_x.htm Apparently Peter Gammons will be in the booth on Sunday Night Baseball w/ Jon Miller and Joe Morgan. Meh.

PR just made a sacrifice bunt down the first base line to fatass Randall Simon of the Netherlands. Needless to say, it worked. Puerto Rico goes up 2 including a Cintron run.

Netherlands is trying to pull off the upset and has just tied it 3 to 3 in the sixth inning. With today's news, we have also added a third WBCer. Cintron is 0-2 with a K and 2 LOB. Mexico is up on S. Africa 2-0 in the 2nd. EDIT: Cintron just got his first hit.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Mar 9, 2006 -> 12:49 AM) Freddy :headbang Bases loaded w/ 1 out and he K's the next 2 He strcuk out the heart of the order in Menechino and Catalanotto, too. Also, why is Delucchi batting last for Italy?

QUOTE(quickman @ Mar 9, 2006 -> 12:44 AM) The only good thing that "the baj" did for us was get Cintron. see ya Thank god we have heard the last about him around here.

Freddy in some trouble now....

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 9, 2006 -> 12:21 AM) 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. 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.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Mar 9, 2006 -> 12:19 AM) What channel is this game? If its on dpeortes , do we get deportes on in chicago for Comcast? 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.)

1) False 2) True 3) True 4) True 5) True 6) True 7) True 8) True 9) True 10) False 11) False 12) True 13) False 14) True 15) False 16) True 17) False 18) False 19) False 20) True

Freddy gets 'em 1-2-3 to begin the game.
