OMG!!! :yikes:

but who were the pitchers?  :rofl::facepalm:

I'm sure I could have done a lot better...:whistle:

I feel so lucky I didn't watch that...I let you choose the definition you prefer...:zip:

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.

    • I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.   Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.
    • If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.
    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
    • Four events with medals awarded halfway into the first day, and already six NOCs are on the medal table 
    • First day of sporting action today. There's livestreams available on the official website: https://www.bolivarianos2024.pe/envivo/   PanamSports Channel should be broadcasting events as well.
    • Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).
