  WannaBe: Currently, Dominican Republic 1, Puerto Rico 0, Top 3rd Inning.

The winner will face Italy in Miami, the loser will face USA.

Mar-11-13  Jim Bartle: Mexico was responsible for that brawl, 100%.

With a six-run lead in the ninth, Canada bunted for a single. Mexico's third baseman clearly told the pitcher to hit the next batter. He threw at the guy three straight times, hitting him in the back with the last one, despite an umpire's warning. And the big fight started.

What the Mexican players didn't understand is that run difference is a tiebreaker in the WBC, so teams should keep trying to score even when far ahead.

  WannaBe: Barring some major league level miracle, D.R. and P.R. will play tomorrow for the whole Championship.

Should be a very, very, very, very close, intense, high drama, game.

  WannaBe: P.R. and D.R. should start soon, weather is not the best condition for baseball...

Dark gloomy, expected rain tonight, hopefully it won't get here until the game is over.

Should be really chilly/cold at the park. Especially upper decks.

Mar-19-13  Jim Bartle: "Should be really chilly/cold at the park. Especially upper decks."

Why did they move the game to Candlestick?
