Bad Call

I'm not a baseball fan at all. But have to feel bad for the Japanese.

Japan got the shaft on the blown call by UMP verus the US. From a cultural standpoint, it's very rare to hear Japanese people to question or critize people of authority, especially in public. They accept things as is, move on and hope for better things to come.

But they really vented in anger about Bob Davision. Calling it incomprehensible, even an elementary school would get it right. Followed it all up with a letter of protest to WBC organizers.

WBC ask for the best players in the world to compete and only to use mainly American minor league umpires? Non American umpires are on the alternate list. Go figure. Bud Selig is a classic.
