WBC - Netherlands/Dominican Republic

Tie game going into the Bottom of the 9th. Real good game, Netherlands should not have even been close to pulling this upset. Anyone have the line? Is DR already in the next round? I havent been paying attention at all

I played DR -4.5 for about even money. Boggles my mind how this almost all star calibre lineup is being held by these pitchers.

-4.5 -130 here. I think DR was like -900. What the hell is wrong with DR's hitting?

When do they start putting guys on 1st and 2nd with no outs to start the innings? If that happens, you still have a chance

Bert Blyleven is in the Dutch dugout...is is the manager or pitching coach?

Pitching coach.

I can't believe the Dominicans have not given up 1 earned run since day one of this competition and they are in serious danger of being eliminated.:think2:

Great game by the Dutch. Good to see Kingsale get a chance to redeem himself after that play in the outfield

Kind of like Navy beating Notre Dame 2 years ago. Amazing!

are you in Ft Myers??..Hit any of those places?

thekid78 · Mar 11, 2009

I was actually wrong. We are in Port Charlotte, just flew into Fort Myers. We went to the Everglades the other day and did a boat tour, kind of cool. I have been to a few different restaurants...Portofino, Harpoon Harrys and the Navagator. We drove to Tampa the other night and hit up the Hard Rock Casino, which was pretty cool. Went to the Rays/Twins game yesterday and met Peter Gammons. Played some golf today, perfect weather...Good trip overall, but I missed the spring breaking.

Not reallly his fault. If the Dominicans could get some runs once in a while then different story. The Dominicans are lucky they're not from Cuba because Fidel would of lined them all up in front of a firing squad.
