You’ve probably heard the saying that hindsight is 20/20 on Monday morning, so just imagine how well I can call ’em two days later on Wednesday. That’s right, it’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up.
Tensions were running high last night as Puerto Rico was up on Team USA 5-3 at the bottom of the 9th. Team USA kept their cool and played like a team, advancing runners with steals and sacrifice flies. Team PR withered and started walking US bats, loading the bases and bringing the score up to 5-4 with disasterous cosnequences. David Wright stepped up and hit a fly ball that was not caught, allowing Team USA to plate two and win.
This evening will be the final elimination game for either Japan or Cuba. Winner will go on to play South Korea. I’m not sure who I want to win this one, both teams are really great, but Japan going to the finals allows for a more dramatic win in the finals when they lose. Cuba winning allows a fantastic, relatively unknown squad to prove their mettle. Tune in tonight at 2300 EST to see the outcome or just wait until tomorrow morning.
