Korea Sticks It to Japan


I'M A LITTLE LATE on this one, but I've been watching the World Baseball Classic more than I thought I would. There have actually been quite a few memorable moments, both big and small, including the flag planting the Koreans did after defeating Japan earlier this week to advance to the semifinals (Japan actually beat Korea yesterday to gain a more favorable semifinal matchup with the U.S.). Distasteful? Unsportsmanlike conduct? I admit that it surprised me and my gut reaction was that it was a bit much. Either way, it was rubbing it in to the Japanese. And it's no surprise to anyone that defeating Japan is probably just as good as clinching it all for Korea.
