Team USA

Last night I saw Team USA beat Chinese Taipei (aka Taiwan) 5-1 at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium (home of the Kannapolis Intimidators). Even had a San Diego State player get the save by pitching the last three innings. The team moves on to play Japan in Durham, and then the Pan American Games in Brazil (yes, there is even a Latin America connection).

But if it’s a warm evening and you’re five years old, most of your attention is on ice cream. In small minor league parks, though, somebody needs to pay attention because foul balls do come your way.
