That was an awesome game. I am worried about what pitchers TN has left. With the pitch count rules I don't see how they can put pitchers out there that can stop the Japanese team. TN has the hitters to compete, I just don't see the pitching matching up.
For the World Championship, they need to throw out the 85 pitch rule.
It should be "the best" against "the best".
It was Japan's best pitcher against TN worst. It wasn't fair.
The US Championship game between CA and TN was awesome to watch. I have coached a ton of youth baseball, ( Little League and Babe Ruth ) and those kids were great!
