Goodoleboy58 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 no mention of the HR and the Brawl that almost occurred... Man I was for sure the Netherlands had nothing to lose at that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.C. Collins Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 no mention of the HR and the Brawl that almost occurred... Man I was for sure the Netherlands had nothing to lose at that pointWhat happened???A Brawl??Who does the U.S. play next?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodoleboy58 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 What happened???A Brawl??Who does the U.S. play next??the big guy from the Netherlands, cant remember his name, hit a towering home run off Lindstrom in the 8th (?) inning. He stood there at home plate and watched the homerun and had a little giddyup in his step as he trotted to first base. They showed the camera angle afterwards and David Wright was yelling from the dugout to move his ***... At that point the homerun made the score 8-2 (i believe). Well the next guy up for the Netherlands gets a ball thrown behind him, enough to give him a little scare. The whole Netherlands team came out on the field and it was pretty tense for a few minutes. Nothing ended up happening though. And oh yea Brian McCann played LF for Team USA in the 9th inning after he pinch-hit for Ryan Braun in the 8th. Nothing was hit his way though. Ryan Braun may be missing the rest of the WBC as well his back was really tight and you could see a few camera angles of him trying to stretch it out while playing in the OF. They are already short handed this series with Chipper not being able to be replaced until next round. Of course the announcers made no mention of this so there is nothing to back me up on the Braun thing. But why else would McCann pinch hit for him in the 8th already with a 5 run lead. It isn't for defensive purposes thats for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
