VENEZUELA VANQUISHES TEAM USA, TAKES WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC CHAMPIONSHIP

Special  to El Rrun-Rrun

Venezuela’s dominant pitching and timely hitting shocked the United States, 3-2, to capture the World Baseball Classic (WBC) title for the first time in team history.

Only Team USA, Japan and the Dominican Republic have been able to call themselves WBC champions. Venezuela, using its momentum from a semifinal victory over Italy on Monday night, had eyes set on history.

But no one could’ve expected what transpired at loanDepot Park in Miami, as the U.S. was held to just two hits and four total baserunners.

The Rio Grande Valley has no baseball ⚾ team since 2014, the City of Harlingen and the City of Edinburg, had the Rio Grande Valley Whitewings and Edinburg Roadrunners and they let them Die. Bring back another team so the people can watch some Baseball ⚾ in the Summer 🌞

It's a Pitchers game now, but tomorrow the hitters will rule with a new invention we are producing. I was a hitter.

On another note. Why do they call it the World Series? It’s only American teams participating. Hmmm.
