We can all feel better as Americans today, as it turns out we did cheat last night in trying to beat the Mexicans. Whew. We did give it the old American best after all. Last night, I missed the early innings and the great bad call by umpire Bob Davidson that reduced a Mexican home run to an infield double. Of course video showed the call to be wrong. Of course the Mexican coach protested.

Bob Davidson is the same US umpire who cheated the Japanese out of scoring last week and helped the US win against Japan. To give the US all stars the needed edge, we again had US umpires in a game with the US team - which in itself is cheating. The American way. But the Mexicans beat us anyway.
