Puerto Rico surprises Japan to reach the final and now its up to the Netherlands to derail the Dominican Republic juggernaut. The Dominicans will have a little payback on their minds, so I would not want to be the Dutch on Monday night. A PR-DR match-up seems like it's baked into the cake.
from ESPN:
Puerto Rico vs. Dominican Republic - Recap - March 16, 2013 - ESPN:
Both teams had already qualified for the semifinals in San Francisco, and the game merely determined seedings. Puerto Rico plays two-time defending champion Japan on Sunday night, and the Dominicans face the Netherlands on Monday night, with the winners advancing to the championship game Tuesday.
The Dominicans were eliminated from the 2009 WBC when they lost twice to the Netherlands in a stunning first-round upset.
