I had forgotten how much I used to like Jim Kaat as an announcer

Yeah I don't think I would want it every year but I am having a blast watching it. I love the atmosphere of the games in PR.

Not only do I like it, but I think it is very important for baseball to do this.
Since we believe we have the highest level of professional sports, the US tends to scoff at international competition. Some of these teams look very good, I think would be a lot of fun to win. The more popular it becomes here and around the world, the more it strengthens MLB.

I feel like Vanden Hurk pwned us last year. I remember him for some reason at least.
Nevermind, we beat his ass

Bernie Williams is alive, and slower than Cecil Fielder.

Canada is in trouble against Italy

So that was pretty fuckin sweet. Netherlands brought in this 19-year-old kid, all they had for stats to show were his high school stats. Comes in with 2 runners on in a 1-0 game to face Pudge, k's him. Nasty breaking ball. The Marlins' pbp guy who is doing this game lost it.

Same here. He knows his shit but does it without bias.
