The Royals get all their guys back, as the World Baseball Classic has concluded.
Matt Strahm left early last night after taking a comebacker to the lower body. (Foot??? Unconfirmed though.)
MVP of the WBC, Maikel Garcia doubled down about his comments about Latin America, and playing for his country.
Acuña said Team Venezuela was happy for the support “because we are all Latin America.” That’s how you smash a softball question. Garcia didn’t agree with Acuña. “I think people, Puerto Ricans and Dominicans want us to play for Latin America,” Garcia said. “But us baseball players are playing for our country and obviously we are lifting Latin America up and demonstrating in Latin America there is great baseball, and a lot of talent comes out of Latin America but ultimately we are playing for our country.”
Garica would tweet out before the championship game, “Now I have to say that I play for Latin America.” Which in turn, he doubled down on after winning the championship game against the USA, again tweeting out this statement. ““Venezuela won, not Latin America.” As someone, who doesn’t have heritage to that part of the country, I can’t say much, but maybe some type of banter that is being blown out of proportion?
