Team USA loses in Final

Team USA lost in the final baseball game against Cuba today in the Pan American games.  Cuba won the game 2-0 and only allowed the US team four hits.

The Cuban team was a much older and experienced team compared to Team USA.  The US team is made up of all college age players.  The youngest players on Team USA are going to be freshman in college but the majority of the players will be juniors.  The US team missed out on the talent pool that includes the players who participated in the College World Series.  They could not play due to scheduling conflicts.

It is no surprise the Cuban team won the gold.  Cuba has won every gold medal in the baseball event since 1967, today marked the 10th consecutive time the Cubans have won.
