Wait, I thought it was bad to have a team or class or group of only one race?!

The days are past where I would give a rats a$$.
All kidding aside, this is great news!
RBI (Reviving Baseball in the Innercity) is a wonderful cause. This is good for baseball and great for kids.
50-60 years ago, you had big city HS basketball superstars like Tommy Davis and Frank Robinson choosing baseball over basketball. I bet a lot of today’s NBA players throw like girls.
I think he’s more the catcher type.
I thought segregation was bad.
The team they play will be all Korean. Shall we celebrate that too?
South Korea is tough. Good luck, Chicago.
That whole tournament has been a hoot. Imo, the star of the tournament was Ruy Martinez of Mexico. 4’8” x 85 pounds of baseball wizardry.
It’s been fun.
They have no picthing left. The Koreans have all their picthing available.
While the Chicago team can hit it is not to the level of the Koreans. The one edge Chicago may have is base running and good infield defense.
I watched the Koreans play 3 times. Once live and twice on TV. Hope Chicago can pull it out but the odds are against them.

Skin color being the most important part of the story to the MSM I guess... did the teams with girls lose or something?
did South Korea win the international slot?
The idiots just posted a lengthy cryjob the other day about blacks being finished with baseball and how racist it all is.
I can hear the Korea fans now....”Beat us today, buy from our stores tomorrow.”
Korea’s professional league is named after their corporate owners. I think it’s kind of cool.
Go Kia Tigers!
Go LG Twins!
Go Samsung Lions!
You get the idea.
lol
This is why we have troubles.
They are a team of AMERICANS OF AFRICAN DESCENT.
Wait — I thought black kids didn’t play baseball.
“...the star of the tournament was Ruy Martinez...”
I agree. His home run was great, and his smile even greater.
Maybe someone can put up an all white team to take em on next year.
Go to any “African”-American and ask them to name 10 African countries, bet you 99.9% of them couldn’t do it.
Isn’t 12-13 years old middle aged for African American males in Chicago? Is it fair to let a middle aged team to play against a bunch of kids?
