I love this tournament. Probably becuase I'm fed up with Major League Baseball, and this takes it to a different place. Like when you played in high school and it was all for pride.
Anyway, for those of you that haven't followed it, the Dominican Republic was one of the teams expected to win it all. Yesterday (Tuesday), they were eliminated by the Netherlands.
That'd be like SW Texas State coming to Norman and beating the Sooners in football. Twice!
Anyway, the USA can win their pool (thus gaining a better seed) with a win over Venezuela today. The USA beat Venezuela (in an earlier pool game) in a game that was closer than the final score indicates, 15-6.
