WBC 2009: Semi-Final Seeding Game

ARGH!

Japan beat Cuba (Cuba, what is going on?? I expected so much more from you!!) yesterday to advance to the semi-finals of the World Baseball Classic.

That means Korea has to face Japan (AGAIN) tonight in a seeding game, the last game to be played in San Diego.

KOREA, GET IT DONE! 파이팅!

The seeding game's not (that) important- just determines rankings as the teams come to L.A. in the hopes of making it to the finals. But I think that tonight's game is going to be psychologically significant, as the winner will have a much more positive outlook going into their first semi-final game.

I'm hoping that Japan is so relieved from their win over Cuba yesterday that they'll let their guard down. And maybe they'll be tired.

Yes, clutching straws over here while crossing my fingers.
