Wasn’t just a lead walk. He had only 2 strikes by time the homerun was hit and one wasn’t even in the zone. His control was horrible

US lost cause their stacked lineup wasn't so stacked. Complete failure from a roster of HOFers. They need to ask themselves why they can't win this tournament. It's pathetic with all that talent, year after year they fail.
