Blame It On A-Rod
The Dutch, yes the Dutch just beat the Dominican Republic for the second time in the WBC which eliminates the Dominican team from the tournament.
Now if you compare the Kingdom Of The Netherlands to the Dominican Republic, this isn't an upset, it's actually contains twice the population, but think about the rosters!
Here's the Dominican one and here's the Netherlands'. I am not going to say it's USA-USSR, but it has to be close. This is just stunning.
Somewhere, Robert Eenhoorn is smiling. Here's to you #50.
UPDATE: I don't speak Dutch, but this is the sports section of the biggest newspaper in the Netherlands. I don't see any baseball players, so I am going to guess that despite what ESPN says, this isn't a big deal over there.
