    Canada or Italy will be eliminated tonight. No matter. They're both non-contenders.

    How is Italy part of the WBC anyway? I never thought of Italy as a baseball power.

    If the Dutch win they advance to the 2nd round correct? I will definately see Japan and Korea next weekend in San Diego.

    I checked and they have no name. Not a bad thing actually. Most of those names make me cringe.

    They should be known as the 'failed Cricketers':smile:

    Venezuela bounces Italy. Netherlands eliminates the DR!!!!!!!

    They beat them twice.

    They allowed 3 runs in 20 innings to a pretty stacked lineup.

    The favorite in the tourney goes down twice to a 100-1 underdog. Epic Fail!

    Different sites have different lines, as a person who frequents the betting odds as much as you do, you should know this. My lines came from sportsbook.com

    [​IMG] I wasn't correcting your odds. Read what I linked.

    I know places have different odds. I don't correct odds. Netherlands was 100/1 at some places.
