		There was a point in the first game of yesterday's Caribbean World Series doubleheader--men on second and third, two outs, 16th inning, Gregor Blanco swinging right out of his socks on the first pitch, and whiffing two pitches later--when I thought, this game will not die.
		Around the 13th inning, word circulated through the press box that the longest game in Caribbean Series history was a matchup between Venezuela and the Dominican Republic in 1989, lasting 16 innings before ending in a 3-2 Venezuelan win.
		In the 16th, with the Caribbean Series record for most innings tied, the Venezuelans got a couple of guys on with one out, prior to the Gregor Blanco whiff that led off this piece.

	World Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The World Series is the championship series of Major League Baseball in the United States and Canada, the culmination of the sport's postseason each October.
		The Series winner is determined through a best-of-seven playoff (except in 1903, 1919, 1920 and 1921 when the winner was determined through a best-of-nine playoff) and is awarded the World Series Trophy, as well as World Series rings.
		These series were arranged by the individual teams, not by the leagues directly, the same as the 1880s World's Series matches had been.

	World Series Summary
		The term "World Series" was first coined for a nine-game series between the Boston Pilgrims and the Pittsburgh Pirates, an informal outgrowth of a 1903 "peace treaty" signed between the two competing "major" baseball leagues, the 27-year-old National League (N.L.) and the upstart 2-year-old American League (A.L.).
		Despite its name, the World Series is not a "world championship" in the same sense as the FIFA World Cup or the Cricket World Cup because it is not between national teams, but is limited to Major League Baseball teams, which represent individual cities and states (currently of the United States and Canada only).
		One of these series at the end of 1903 was a meeting between the two pennant winners and is known as the 1903 World Series.

	Latino Baseball, Caribbean World Series Histoey
		And the Caribbean World Series, in its present incarnation, is still growing in prominence throughout the world.
		At the reestablishment of the series in 1970, it was logical that the Dominican Republic should form part of the Caribbean Confederation.
		The second series was won in 1973, with Tom Lasorda at the helm, and was propelled by 75 hits in six games and the leadership of Mota and Jesus Rojas Alou: both men hit.500 and tied for the lead in batting for the series.

		By 1949, the Serie del Caribe (Caribbean Series) pitted teams from the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Panama, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela against one another.

		The first World Series, in 1903, was a best-of-nine affair arranged by the winners of the NL and the AL and won by the AL's Boston Pilgrims in a 5-3 upset over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
		The 1917 Series was memorable for Giants third baseman Heinie Zimmerman's futile chase to home plate of Eddie Collins as the White Sox took the lead in the Series clincher; neither catcher Lew McCarty nor pitcher Rube Benton covered home.
		For their first World Series game on the lakefront, 25,734 Indians fans watch their home team score two in the first and two in the 3rd off Leon Cadore (15-14) and Al Mamaux.

	The World Cup
		Unlike soccer-football, the number of countries with serious baseball leagues and/or signficant numbers of players is limited, and the same teams would be in the hunt for a (short) World Cup even everytime, probably limiting the win-at-any-cost frenzy of the Soccer World Cup.
		Since the Caribbean teams now must follow "The I-Rod Rule" which limits the talent they can put on their roster, we can give the Caribbean team more slots, and allow them to cherry-pick from MLB rosters.
		If the World Series team lost two Dominicans in this process, they are allowed to chery pick an additional two players from the rest of MLB (with the caveat that they can only pick US citizens).

		Facing off for the series title are the four teams that won the playoffs in the winter baseball leagues of the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela and Mexico.
		The Lara nine is led by veteran infielder Luis Sojo, the Caracas native who became a hero in last fall's World Series when he delivered a game-winning hit for the New York Yankees in the fifth and final game against the Mets.
		Without doubt, the experience and leadership that Sojo radiates were among the factors that have led Lara to the series on the Pacific coast of Mexico.
