Dodgers' WBC: USA Falls and Dutch Can't Keep Rolling

VENEZUELA 5 - USA 3: Team Venezuela defeated Team USA in the Pool C finale to determine seeding for the next round. Jonathan Broxton pitched a perfect ninth inning for America, striking out two, including Dodger teammate Luis Maza. It was Maza's only at-bat in the game, and he also committed an error. Ryan Braun had three hits, including a double, and an RBI, and Chris Iannetta had a home run. Gregor Blanco came up a single shy of a cycle for Venezuela.

PUERTO RICO 5 - NETHERLANDS 0: Team Puerto Rico defeated the Dutch to take the number one seed for the next round. Kenley Jansen did not enter the game for Holland. Not one player for P.R. had more than one RBI or one hit. Alex Rios had a triple, RBI, and run for Puerto Rico.

All Dodgers are in black
