No Punishment

The WBC decided not to suspend any players for the Mexico/Canada brawl. I suspect they did not want to hurt Canada in their game against the US, and with the US win, Mexico is out of the tournament anyway.

“Hopefully the tournament’s teams will learn from this incident and set a better example…”

I suspect some people will be more upset at the misuse of “hopefully.” 🙂

I don’t have a problem with this decision. It really wasn’t Canada’s fault, and punishing their players would be unfair going into a winner take all game.
