WBC Round 2 Japan vs Korea

[SoreArms]

Redemption could be served on a silver platter Wednesday night when Japan plays its final game in the second round of the inaugural World Baseball Classic.

Actually, it would be a two-way redemption.

If Japan beats unbeaten archrival Korea at Angel Stadium, it would erase the memories of the 3-2 loss it absorbed at the Tokyo Dome on March 5 in the final game of the Pool A first round. And if Japan beats Korea and allows seven runs or less, that would eliminate Team USA and send the two Asian teams to the semifinals in San Diego.

That would be frosting on the cake because of the way Japan lost a disputed 4-3 decision to the American team Sunday afternoon at Angel Stadium.

Korea is the only undefeated team left in the tournament.

Looks like Japan aare back in! U.S got downed by Mexico? wow! the balance of power is not within North America anymore. Good to see Japan go through as they are a strong team. Hope the U.S build up and send a powerful team next time round to redeem their poor performance.
