After running over to the TV to catch the 9th inning of the USA Puerto Rico game last night I couldn't help but let out a yell as David Wright's base hit dropped inside the right field line, bringing home Brain Roberts and Jimmy Rollins, securing a spot in for the US in the WBC semifinals.
If you looked on the field you saw pandemonium ensue as Rollins crossed home plate. If you looked in the stands, you wouldn't know if it was a walk-off hit in the WBC or a Marlins - Nationals game in August. That was the drawback.
Again, I'm not sure if we can fill stadiums for every game of this thing, but I KNOW we can do better than 13,000 people for a WBC elimination game involving the US on its own soil. But I digress...
If you were a fan of baseball and/or the USA, last night was a special night. Great, intense baseball is being played. Turn on your TV or buy a ticket to see it!
