March 11 COCA SHOW with Adnan Virk: What happened to Team USA at the WBC!? OSCAR SUNDAY IS HERE! (Episode 1424 Hour 1)
Today’s word of the day is ‘calculations’ as in Mark DeRosa as in Team
USA as in the WBC as in Italy. In a shocking result, Team USA lost to
Italy 8-6 on Tuesday night and could now be eliminated from the Group
Phase of the World Baseball Classic. Manager Mark DeRosa said he
“misspoke” earlier in the day when he said the team had already clinched
a spot in the knockout round, but also that he misread the
calculations. Wow. Hunter Greene goes down for the Reds. How bad does
that impact Cincinatti's plans this year? Philadelphia! The Eagles and
the Phillies. Two teams. Two sets of drama. One city. What happened with
the Ravens and Maxx Crosby? Is this cold feet? How mad are the Raiders?
Oscar Sunday is here! Let's get you ready for the big day!
