Italy's Unexpected Strategy Could Topple Venezuela—Is an Epic Upset Brewing?

Venezuela has been very impressive in these games. Any team that can knock off the Champs from last time has to be doing something right. Venezuela took down Japan in their first Quarterfinals game, winning 8-5. It was a game full of emotion as they led off the game with a homer in the first at-bat of the game. The problem is that in the bottom of the first inning, they allowed a homer to Shohei Ohtani, who tied the game up. After that, the Venezuelans took the lead, but it didn’t last long. Gleyber Torres doubled and knocked in a run for them, but the bottom of the third got ugly. Venezuela allowed four earned to the Japanese. The long ball was a friend of Venezuela, though. They knocked in two on Maikel Garcia’s bomb, and then in the sixth, the Venezuelans took a lead they would never relinquish with a Wilyer Abreu homer – a three-run shot. If you haven’t seen it, you need to go watch and see how crazy the crowd went. Baseball is fun when people actually care and show emotion.
