De Rosa trotted out no fewer than eight pitchers as Team USA was humiliated by Team Mexico 11-5.

One of the key causes of his team’s humiliating loss against Team Mexico on March 12th, according to De Rosa, was the difficult balancing act needed to maintain rational pitching.

Their opponents from Mexico managed 15 hits despite none of them pitching further than three innings. However, some athletes have trouble getting insurance approval to compete in the World Baseball Classic, such as pitcher Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
