olympics diary.... BASEBALL~


on the 2nd morning in beijing, we went to the wukesong baseball field to watch KOREA take on Taiwan...

there was extreeeeeeeeme security, and they had to open everyone's flags too, because they didnt want anyone waving the taiwanese flag.... and they had great fears that people would protest at the taiwanese games.....

during the 7th inning stretch, the FUWA's came out to dance.... the mascots! anyways.... the black one fell over... then as i was taking a photo of it, he got up, and the picture i ended up taking was an absolute kodak moment.... haha


the koreans until this game were undefeated.... and actually (real time) tonight.... they won the gold medal!!! they beat cuba with a double play on loaded bases in the bottom 9th inning.... and they won 3-2.... soooooooooooooo awesome!!!!!!!

the korean pitcher in 99, RYU Hyun Jin.... he pitched a blinder of a game... and the koreans are now the olympic gold medalists!!! and they will be the reigning olympic champions for a while now... since baseball is out of the london olympics...

Korea.... baseball champions!!! gold medalists~~ brilliant!
