Cuban Baseball Crisis, Netherlands Upsets Cuba In World Baseball Classic

We have a bona fide shocking upset in the World Baseball Classic.

The mighty Cubans faced the Netherlands in the quarterfinal round and thanks to Kalian Sams sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth upset Cuba 7-6 to advance to the semifinals.

Here's the game winner (Thanks MLB Network)



Cuba had taken a 6-4 lead heading into the bottom of the eighth inning.  Andrelton Simmons hit a two-run homer off Cuba reliever Norberto Gonzalez to set the stage for Sams' heroics.  Here's Simmons' eighth inning home run, FOSG Rich Waltz on the call for MLB Network.
