Saturday slateColombia vs Canada, nowCanada up 3-1 in the 5th. Colombia's not showing much with the bats so far in 2 games.Nicaragua vs Netherlands, now0-0 in the 3rd. Nicaragua looking better than expected, anyone's game.Brazil vs Italy, 1pm ESTBrazil kind of looked better than expected, but it might have just been that the pitching was so awful and wild that USA struggled to get into any sort of rhythm. Italy has a good roster, they should cruise here.Panama vs Puerto Rico, 6pm ESTPanama needs to bounce back, but PR will be tough to beat at home.Israel vs Venezuela, 7pm ESTIsrael looking to pull off the upset, Venezuela has a great lineup but their pitching depth isn't the best so they could give up some runs.USA vs Great Britain, 8pm ESTmaybe against a less wild pitching staff USA will dominate more.Taiwan vs Korea, 10pm ESTPool C is is hitting it's home stretch, a Taiwan win keeps things extra interesting, causing a possible three way tie for 2nd place (assuming Japan beats Australia later). A Korea win means not that much, as it would still all come down to the final game vs Australia.
