Pick your top 10 finishers, in order – post to comments.
If my count is right, there are 13 Ontario teams entered along with three additional Canadian teams. Which means that 35-percent of the teams in the World Tournament are from Canada.
I haven’t looked at the U.S. teams’ rosters, but my guess is that Canadian players (especially pitchers) can be found on the rosters of the top-rated to intermediate-level teams.
So in summation it comes down to this: “What would the World Tournament be without Canada?”
