3/8 WBC: Italy (DiNardo) vs. Venezuela (Garcia)

I'm surprised there isn't already a thread for this game. Venezuela's winning 2-0 after 3.

Now Venezuela's winning 4-0 in the 6th. Italy's being 1-hit.

Venezuela won 6-0. Does anyone know when Zambrano will be allowed to pitch again?

Venezuela will likely play on the 12th and 13th, but it seems more likely that Zambrano will pitch after Johan again on the 12th with Garcia starting on the 13th. Maybe they'd push Z back a day and let him start on the 13th, but I wouldn't count on it.

Thanks!

Well, looks like he will start on six days rest, according to Cubs.com. I'm glad he won't have to come out of the 'pen.

It also looks like the game against Puerto Rico Monday night well be live on ESPN2 at 7:00.
