	Major League Baseball
		Most strikingly, after major league clubs had proudly supplied 180 players to WBC rosters, the championship game was decided between Japan, which had only two major leaguers, and Cuba, which had none (outfielder Ichiro Suzuki and pitcher Akinori Otsuka).
		It was oddly old-fashioned, too, to see in a major league park the game of pepper (in which a batter raps softly tossed balls back at one or more fielders) and infield (pre-game fielding practice in which infielders and outfielders throw to bases), as Cuba and Japan did at Petco Park in San Diego.

		Since the Baseball Encyclopedia was published in 1969, the customary practice has been to ignore this rule and score walks just as they have been scored in every other year of major league history.
		As Total Baseball notes, in the 1884 American Association, Dude Esterbrook was the official "champion," even though we now know Dave Orr hit higher; and in the 1886 AA Orr was the official "champion," even though modern research has established that Guy Hecker hit for higher average that year.
		Total Baseball offers no explanation, but since with this edition TB became the official encyclopedia of MLB (which wanted the official "champions" recognized), I worry this inconsistency may be a result of that relationship.

		The Astros' Richard Hidalgo is one of 38 Venezuelans in the major leagues who may be delayed by political unrest in their home country.
		The pending deadline is little more than three weeks from the dates the first players must show up in spring training camps, so agents are scrambling to get their players' applications in early.
		Venezuelan players still come and go, for now, if they are permanent residents with multiple entry visas, but many stay homebound.

		Attempting to portray its sport as a world game, Major League Baseball reported last year that 242 of the 829 players on opening-day active rosters, including the disabled list, were born outside the 50 states.
		While American-born players must go through the draft to gain employment in major league baseball, foreign-born players are signable free agents upon turning age 17, or in some cases 16.
		As a result, there were only six Cuban players on major league opening-day rosters last year, although the country is more populous than the Dominican and has a state-run baseball infrastructure that has won three of the four gold medals in Olympic baseball history.

		The Rocket became the 21st pitcher in Major League history to win 300 games, and only the third to strike out 4,000 batters in a 5-2 victory in front of a sold-out crowd at Yankee Stadium.
		But because of an old Major League Baseball rule at that time, the Padres had the home-field advantage and would play the final three games in San Diego because then the advantage simply shifted every other year.
