infrared41 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Anybody watching the Final?This has been a pretty well played baseball game, and of course the crowd has been great. Plus, it's a Japan/Korea game, and unlike the past 3 times they've played, this one's for the championship. This has been a pretty exciting game.Couldn't agree more. I think the WBC has been great overall. I really don't understand why some of the media has been so down on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 What a helluva game... tied 3 apiece... and it's going for more emotion. It's great to be young and a Giant! - Larry Doyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 What a helluva game... tied 3 apiece... and it's going for more emotion.Maybe this one will go 6 OTs like the game we had last week... (This Ichiro at-bat is taking FOREVER!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Ichiro may have just clinched a repeat for the Japanese with a clutch 2 run double.Have I mentioned that Ichiro is one of my favorite all-time players to watch? That guy is just great to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy is just great to watch.Agreed, he's gotta be the best pure hitter of this generation. Too bad the WBC will be the only title he's going to win unless he can ever find a way outta Seattle.

NJTank Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I think Japan has proven its baseball league is a very good league, it may not be MLB but its not far off. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakwood Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Damn, the Blue Jays should seriously look at some of those Korean players. I can't see them needing overly expensive salaries, and they would help draw big crowds here.Congrats to Japan on the repeat. Great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Did anybody catch how SportsCenter did the highlights for this one? They basically did it youtube-style, no anchors, no generic music (sorry, Epiphianic (sic)) just the video of what happened.I actually liked it better that way.

JayJaxon Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 It's good to see Ichiro come around. I didn't go to this game, but the two semi-final games were great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
