3/15 WBC: Korea (Kim) vs Japan (Watanabe) 9pm CT

[Brian]

I'm tempted to buy one of those K hats!

 

I know, I think they look awesome too but it is one of the few that they don't sell at the WBC web site :(

[Andy]

RUNS!

 

Nothing quite like joy you get from MLB Gameday when you see the words "run scoring play". :D

It really is one of the best phrases in baseball. :)

I saw, for the first time today, someone walking around with a Team USA hat on. It actually looked pretty cool even independent of the WBC and I might get one.

[stitchface]

anyone else nervous about BYK blowing the lead?

 

Incidentally, if you want a K hat, I can see if they have them at the game on Saturday since we know Korea will be playing.

I ordered one but they are backordered for like 5-6 weeks, so I won't have it for awhile but like you said it's pretty nice looking independent of this.

[Brian]

how wierd is it to see Ichiro get Bonds/Arod like boos.

[stitchface]

why is he being booed? Angel fans? apparently the korean manager remembers 2001.

[Andy]

3 more outs :D

[Brian]

It is a heavy Korea crowd, and he said before Round 1 that Japan was 30 years ahead of all other Asian nations in baseball.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

2-3-4 due up for Japan in the 9th.

[stitchface]

korea has dominated this tournament.

I don't know whether to hate the Koreans for putting us in this predicament, or love them for bailing us out :-k

First thing first; let's hope Korea holds off Japan in the bottom of the ninth.

[Brian]

[sethuel1]

[Brian]

[Skers and Cubbies]

You can't end the game without drama........ come on korea dont blow this

[BCVM22]

Ugh. Korea vs. Japan should not feel like a Cubs game.

[CardsFanInChiTown]

I wonder if Asia has the concept of a closer?

[UMFan83]

If they score, it better be a game 6 NLCS 8th inning style output of 8 runs.

 

Edit: Oh wait its the bottom of the 9th :(

[stitchface]

If they score, it better be a game 6 NLCS 8th inning style output of 8 runs.

 

the most they can end up with is 5 . . .
