Party Like It’s 1665!
Cause the Dutch have become a world power yet again! Somehow a lineup featuring David Ortiz, Hanley Ramirez, Robinson Cano, Miguel Tejada, and Jose Reyes was shut down by well, basically a Single A team at best. Looking at the box score, it’s obvious that the Dutch took advantage when they could getting 7 baserunners to the D.R.’s 14, but hitting them in when it counted. I’m sure Amsterdam will be rocking tonight!
Really this is probably a good thing for the World Baseball Classic because it shows that teams we all thought would suck (like the Netherlands) turn out to be good, so next time around every single major leaguer with any pride in the Dominican Republic will play for them, thus increasing the star power.
