⚾ Baseball | 2024 WBSC Premier 12 Baseball Tornament

After Mexico came from behind with a 8th inning grand slam to avoid being eliminated by the Netherlands, the two teams clashed behind home plate after the last out.

I wish we play the Netherlands, because historically we’ve sucked at hitting Latin pitching.

Team Taiwan doesn’t have advantage over the Netherlands when they have minor league players.

We lost to the Netherlands in the 2015 Inaugural Premier 12 7:4, and again in 2017’s WBC 5:6.

Not the highlight reel.

My bad

thinking going at Tianmu. Anything good to eat while watching the match there, or maybe I will stop by 士東市場 , which is near. Have not been to both in a long time.

Tiantu typhoon is coming, so go to one before it gets close.

Eddy’s Cantina is not far away. I haven’t got the chance to try it though.

Golden Formosa Taiwanese Cuisine is really famous. Not sure how easy it would be to get a reservation.

Both look pretty pricey though.

There are also two malls right near the ball park.

I don’t watch Friends (I don’t have a tv) and consequently not familiar with that allusion.

I don’t understand your argument. Since they have a lot of major leaguers, much more than we do, why would they be better when they can’t use them?

They appealed the HR?

Cmon, man. We won. I know run differential matters in pool advancement, but let’s have some class.

The guy doing the complaining is the commissioner of CPBL who has nothing to do with Taiwan’s baseball association that’s responsible for participating in WBSC tournaments. So this is pretty much all he could do, complain. He is too removed from the process to actually appeal.

Toilet paper on the mound.

Eddy’s Cantina is good suggestion, I may try. I feel Taiwanese in better here in south (and more choices), so may pass that. The Mall, also any suggestions in takashima, maybe I will use the car park there? (discount on the car park fee too!)

The Typhoon, yes so maybe just a walk up tickets if possible, not sure if i buy in advance it can be refunded. Odd late typhoon and a bit many this season (last one was weak here, but I worst in NE there) It seems will miss Taipei (at this time) 颱風天兔路徑不確定性高 花蓮台東屏東15日防劇烈降雨 | 生活 | 中央社 CNA

Lyle Lin obviously didn’t know the dimensions of the stadium, gets thrown out at second after a DR errant throw to first.

Getting a US education obviously didn’t benefit him much.

Choice to use Yellow Toilet Paper was brilliant against DR. Six no-hit innings.

Why are Taiwanese people such idiotic base runners? I’m sick of this crap.

Final: :taiwan: 2 :dominican_republic: 1

The closer of these 2 games, Wu Jun-Wei, is pretty great ad well.

Wrote about him back during the pandemic, I’m his first full season.

Why is he in a suit and not playing?

They literally call him “blackie.”
