I take comfort in knowing that the one guy he'll be facing consistently this season drew a walk and got a great jump on that steal

"You can tell by the reaction that it meant a lot." Ignoring that KRod acts like that after a mid May three run save against the Royals.

I'm actually kinda glad the US lost. I want to be able to root for both the US and the Netherlands in the begin of the next round and this way I can do both.

Mexico up 5-0 on Australia in the last elimination game of the first round. Australia shoulda saved some of those runs.

If this score holds (which it should -- Mexico up 11-1 as I type), then Mexico will advance over Australia.

Mexico will have gone 2-1, beating South Africa and Australia and losing to Australia (all games in Mexico, mind you).

Australia will have gone 1-2, beating Mexico and losing to Cuba and Mexico.

So basically, it comes down to playing Cuba versus playing South Africa. Doesn't quite seem fair.

Victorino, CF
Jeter, SS
Jones, C, DH
Youkilis, 1B
Wright, 3B
Dunn, RF
Braun, LF
McCann, C
DeRosa, 2B
Peavy, P

For the US. Why is Braun batting 7th?

Shane-o almost makes a great throw to get a guy going 1st to third.

On replay, I think he might have gotten him.
