It's the tenth inning of a tie game, and your pitcher is facing the greatest pure hitter his country has ever known with runners on second and third and two men out, with first base open. What do you do?
- Walk him, like the book says, and pitch to Hiroyuki Nakajima.
- Pitch to Ichiro, and tempt fate.

I'm not sure which is better. The awesome graphic, showing the flags of Japan and South Korea and the score, that popped into the telecast when Japan scored the tying and go-ahead runs, or the excited voices of the Japanese(?) broadcasters happily describing the frenetic scene.
Great post.
