3-0 Korea in the first

Suzuki makes up for it with a two run bomb

3-2 Korea after 1

Murakami k on 73 mph ch...korean sidearmer fb 84-87 but not easy to pick up

still 3-2 both pitchers settling in

for some reason they've already shown Kikuchi's wife about ten times from the dugout wearing her husband's jersey...Taiwan broadcast ELTA-1

another Ohtani homer 111 ev  big hug from Kikuchi in dugout  a lot more smiles in dugout than you see in the US

3-3 bot 3rd   2 hr's 6 rbi's

4-3 Seiya's second homer, teeing off now    pitcher replaced

Yoshida homer  back to back so much for "dead ball"   must be using MLB baseballs that are larger and springier

5-3

Hyeseong Kim (lad) ties with a homer off new pitcher Itoh

5-5

two MurakamI k's, this one called strike 3

Ohtani flipped a ball to lcf off a tough lefty reliever

2/3    12 tb

tie game going to the 6th

manager Ibata is going to be tempted to sub Sato for Okamoto at 3B

 

 

Japan 5-4 vs Korea in wbc

2-2 vs. US

two losses in all other wbc games since 2009

https://www.si.com/mlb/padres/onsi/san-diego-padres-news/padres-4-5-million-free-agent-signee-part-of-blockbuster-trade-suddenly-released

reliever Preller wasted $4.5 million on...Woo Suk Go got Mune to ground out fairly weakly up the middle

1/6 now I think

 

Ohtani Suzuki Yoshida have looked good

Kondoh Okamoto Mune not so much   at least so far

Genda can really field SS smoothly at 33 and 2B Maki the spiritual leader of team

Japanese just don't mess up sac bunts

Ohtani will get a chance to drive in lead run barring a catastrophe on basepaths

Sato ph for Catcher    hard grounder to 1B down line

Intl walked Ohtani   two outs

ph for kondoh?   bringing in another lhr it seems

 

umpire very inconsistent with ball strike calls

walk  bases loaded for suzuki

 

6-5  walked in leading run

Seiya homers were 104.4  104.8  talk about consistent

Yoshida two run single up middle to break it open

8-5

8-6  Japanese reliever shakily left bases loaded   more bad ball/strike calls mixed in

8 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said:

Murakami single to break his hitless streak

2/7

2/13 including exhibitions, but hopefully his second really hard contact of the weekend gets him going

 

japan's fastest player Shuto and best defensive ofer pr for Mune and steals second

Detroit's Jahmai Jones almost badly overran that one  reached back   no Ohtani final at bat unless Korea can score 2 or more

Ota in to close

 

probably see Sato at 3B or RF tmrw against Australia
