Now that's a little embarrassing.

Didn't see that coming. Embarrassing indeed. They still want the sport in the Olympics? Total props to the Europeans!

Anybody who is shocked hasn't been following NPB where Oh's home run record was broken in 2013 by a "European" player from Dutch Curacao. Still playing for Yakult if I'm not mistaken.

Torafusu: Still a shocker. We're talking about Samurai Japan! The best of the best in baseball (at least in Japan, which is still among the best in the world if not the best). What's more it was five to nothing at one point. So, yeah, still a pretty big embarrassment. I know more than a few people who were looking forward to this game who ne'er said a peep about it this morning.
