Galarraga looks pretty good.  Fuck Jeter. He should be playing behind Rollins. Rollins is better.

Venezuela is a rock solid team.  IMO a top 5 team along with Japan, DR, USA, Korea.

Said Davey wants him to go 5.  2 straight singles by VEN.  If there is an Oswalt inning this inning, I'm blaming YOU!

When Jeter came in to score, the announcer called it like it counted for more than one run.

"Billy Ripken's biggest thrill in being associated with USA Baseball is getting to know what Derek Jeter is really like."  I'm officially sick to my stomach now.

Tim Tebow is sick to his stomach after that.

It does, it just one of the many things Jeter does that doesn't show up on the score card.

Actually, the Derek Jeter Rule, three runs every time he hits the pay station, *does* show up on the score card.

Surprised they didn't note what a sportsman Jeter was there by purposefully grounding out as to allow Venezuela not to have suffer the humiliation of the Mercy Rule there...

The Aussies climbed back in. It's tied 7 all in the 6th. They should call it Mexico/US, since about one third the guys on the team were born in the US.

They took the lead. Very gritty team they have, all they're doing is putting the bat on the ball and putting it into play.

Australia with 2 in the bottom of the 6th. 9 to 7 now, in favor of the men from down under. At least 5 of Mexico's 9 in the starting line-up were,[queue Bruce] born in the USA.
