Maestri just unwatchable on the mound and the bats more than cold...frozen! what a shame! I should stop wasting my time with them and watch Russian hockey and MLB/NPB Baseball... What’s the NPB? Is that Japan’s league? “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

phelps 6,858 Posted September 13, 2019 Author #43 Share Posted September 13, 2019 on the other side, Sweden are the first relegated team (after losing 12-2 after 8 innings vs GBR), meanwhile Austria are safe after winning 10-0 against Croatia... the same GBR and CRO will play tomorrow to avoid the last relegation (the loser will go down in 2nd division)...

Yes, it's the top tier baseball in Japan (there are 12 teams, 6 in the Central League and 6 in the Pacific League...the format is more or less the same of the MLB, with most league play, a short interleague play and then the PO...one league has DH and one hasn't)...

phelps 6,858 Posted September 13, 2019 Author #46 Share Posted September 13, 2019 by the way, Chris Colabello just sent the ball in the woods over the fence and ITA have shortened the distance to 3-5 in the 6th... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,858 Posted September 13, 2019 Author #49 Share Posted September 13, 2019 and here come another sac fly...but this was a great catch by the German centerfielder... however, what matters is that now we are tied at 5, with runners in 2nd and 3rd (and 2 outs) still in the 6th...

phelps 6,858 Posted September 13, 2019 Author #50 Share Posted September 13, 2019 and soft hit back to the pitcher...assist in 1st and inning over... we should have taken a lot more advantage of such kind of inning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
