Mexico played hard and I was rooting for them to pull off the upset.Mexico pushed Japan to the eight inning and even though they had bases loaded with 2 outs we lost that match in the end
Japan 3-2 Mexico
The good news is that the team looked completely different than against the Canadian team less than 24 hours later, but the lack of big scenario experience showed and mexicans did not close the deal when they got full house and needed to score just ONE run.
Now I hope they get a big boost confidence because they really looked great and Japan suffered against them. Now Mexico has to go for the rest of the 3 games in the round robin, Gold/Silver medal is almost out of sight but still could fight for the bronze
Fake news, no softball is worth watching!USA are leading 1-0 over Canada in the softball. A really great, tight game so far, worth watching.
Innings are (generally) shorter though. And baseball games don't end in scoreless drawsThe one thing football/soccer has in its favour over boresball is that there are usually only two halves. No one needs nine innings of any sport.![]()

Baseball was invented by people who think watching paint dry is too exciting.Baseball is only interesting watching in person. The snacks and company of friends help.![]()
I fully concur!Why not skip the second half and/or extra time and proceed directly to the penalties? That would be exciting!
That's just weird.Have to say I find most team sports dull apart from indoor volleyball for some reason.![]()
Watching golf on TV is boring but it’s better than watching in person.For those of you who find baseball boring (I love it!), how do you feel about golf??? LOL Now that's boring to me!
I found it painful in person. It felt unnecessarily long just to accommodate for commercials. I left after a few innings.Baseball is only interesting watching in person. The snacks and company of friends help.![]()
Most games I’ve watched have not been major league games (minor farm teams so no commercial breaks.)I found it painful in person. It felt unnecessarily long just to accommodate for commercials. I left after a few innings.
I prefer fast paced team sports.
I find ice hockey dreadful to watch.
