I have a question about the japanese team that just
played Team USA in anexhibition game at Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha. I am assuming that like the U.S. players these are Japanese college players. But are they the best Japanese collegians or just some players fortunate enough to be selected to travel to the U.S.? What can you tell me about these players? I looked over your college section and saw nothing that would help me understand who they are. Any thoughts? thanks
