Bob Davidson did it again!!! This time he screwed Mexico out of a homerun!!! WHAT A JOKE!!! The ball clearly hit the foul pole and it practically ricocheted back near second base and that moron blew the call again!! Even the announcers can't believe the umps blew it.
 
hahahaha that was funny. mexico should be happy though, the only way they can advance is if they shutout US till the 13th then hit a walk off 3 run homer. Mexico is arguing to be eliminated HAHAHAHA
Arod was out at that play at first too. was this the same guy who made that bogus japan call?
 
soo what has to happen for usa to be elimnated? they are saying mexico is already done?


edit why would they be eliminated?! they are winning!

He clearly wants Team USA to advance, even if his horrible calls taint the WBC.

I still don't understand the tiebreaker rules!

i think i didn't post clearly what i wanted to say.

"korea winning all three games exposed the weakness in the tournament rules regarding tiebreaks" and it is something the MLB committee is going to have to take a serious look at before trying this again.
