Gonzalez criticizes WBC organizers over Mexico elimination (Yahoo Sports)

Adrian Gonzalez had some harsh words for organizers of the World Baseball Classic. ''They're trying to become the World Cup, but they're not even close to being the Little League World Series,'' the Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman said Wednesday. Gonzalez's Mexican team beat Venezuela 11-9 Sunday in Guadalajara, leaving both teams tied with Italy for second in Group D behind Puerto (3-0).
