"Only a rubber ball is needed for the street sport which is said to bring baseball to previously inaccessible areas. Any playing surface can be utilised and no pitcher is needed as hitting is don

and as usual Italy wasted a 7-5 lead (giving up 2 solo homers) in the 9th inning and an 8-7 advantage in the top of the 10th and finally lost once again against their arch-rival from the Netherlands...:cry::facepalm::wall:

35 runs, that sounds like a lot more fun than those matches with 4-5-6 runs :d

naaaa...I hate the slug fests...I consider myself a "purist" of the game...I definitely prefer the great pitching duels (and the great defensive plays)...

the emotion that a perfect game gives to me is not comparable with any other kind of situation in Baseball (OK, maybe a walk-off grand slam could match that...but that's it)...;)

Super Six

 

Day #5 Results

 

:ITA Italy b. :ESP Spain 8-5

:GER Germany b. :CZE Czech Republic 5-4

:NED Netherlands vs :ESP Spain  12-10

:NED Netherlands vs :BEL Belgium  Game cancelled (bad weather)

 

Final Standings

 

:NED Netherlands, 4W - 0L

:ITA Italy, 4W - 1L

:ESP Spain, 3W - 2L

:BEL Belgium, 1W - 3L

:GER Germany, 1W - 4L

:CZE Czech Republic, 1W - 4L

 

 

Italy should be safe in the Final Match (scheduled for Tomorrow @ 1.30 p.m. CET), meanwhile Netherlands vs Spain should allow only the winning team to reach 1 of the first 2 spots in the Round Robin standings (and therefore to make it through to the Final match)...

but maybe there's still a mathematical chance for the Netherlands to be within the top 2 teams of the RR also by losing with a very slim margin (I've not done all the required calculations, yet)...:mumble:

bad weather played a strong role in these last 2 days of the Super Six tournament...:cry::facepalm:

 

earlier Today, infact, :NED Netherlands b. :ESP Spain 12-10 after the game was called a day after only 8 innings and, since it became useless for the aim of finding the 2 finalists, NED vs BEL (scheduled for Tonight) has been cancelled...

 

if the weather conditions will allow the game to be played, Tomorrow (scheduled start @ 1.30 p.m. CET) Italy and Netherlands will play the Gold Medal game, otherwise I think the Netherlands will be declared winner of the tournament based on the Round Robin standings...

Maybe early in the morning or somewhere in the evening, but other than that for now it seems to be rain, rain, rain and rain in Hoofddorp tomorrow. I don't know if they play when the rain is not very strong, in that case it might be ok in the afternoon. Kinda wet, but ok.

      Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health.
