ISF World CUP - Day 3

Game of the day was evening game Japan vs Czech Republic:
Despite the fact the game was live on TV we still had good crowd
- full 
stadium pushing the Czech team against Japan. Unfortunately for
Czechs, 
starting pitcher Roman Matuska allowed 3 hits in the very first
inning and 
let them scored one with runners on second and third. Than coach
replaced 
him bringing the number one Lubos Vrbensky. Umpire called illegal
pitch to 
new pitcher ! and score was 2:0. Vrbensky came with excelent
pitching for 
the rest of the game and did not allowed any more runs for Japan.
Czechs came back in the top of third when Prochazka hit solo
homerun, and 
tied the game in top of seventh when Vacha was hit by pitch with
bases 
loaded.
The decision came in the tie-breaker. Czech did not score when
pitcher 
Hamaguchi struck out the first batter and than infielders took
care of the 
rest - two infield ground outs. Japan moved the runner from second
to third 
on passed ball and brought him home by single of Yokoyama.
Great fastball played by both teams was awarded by almost 10
minutes 
standing ovation.....
