    Game should be umpired by someone of neutral nationality. Dominican Republic was done dirty.

    Meh tomato tomatO.

    Calls were horrible on both sides. Bottom line DR had plenty of opportunities to score in 9 innings. They got 1 run.

    You learn in little league to never put the game in the umpire’s hands when it’s 3-2 with the game on the line.

    Nobody here ever said baseball was easy. That’s not a thing anywhere.

    Yeah I don't think I've ever seen anyone claim baseball was easy anywhere. Now I have seen people make comments downplaying the athletic abilities of baseball players, especially before analytics, based on guys like Pablo Sandoval and more recently Alejandro Kirk playing.

    Well those are people who don’t count in sports conversations. They say the same thing about golf. No knowledgeable fan would say that.

    USA vs Venezuela should be a good one. Hope USA can pull out 1 more win. Another close game likely
