The play-by-play for Olympic baseball games has a bit to be desired. It's written in reverse order to start out with. And then there's "Place at Bat." I assume that means someone has come up to bat. This is from NBCOlympics.com

Here's the first inning of the recently completed Netherlands-Taiwan game. Taiwan won 5-0.

The Netherlands is a glorious land, full of rich history and cultural brilliance. But I just can't see NED without thinking of Ned Nederlander.

I just can't. I'm a child.
