Now that Manny Ramirez is an American citizen, would he play for the US in a future baseball World Cup, or would his Dominican origin allow him to play for them? I've always found the rules for who can play for what country in international competition pretty odd. I mean, we had guys on the US national soccer team in the 1980s and '90s who didn't speak that much English (or at least heavily accented English).
On the other hand, it'll work out for whatever Americans get to play baseball for Greece this summer. I imagine the Greek baseball jersey will be a big hit at the Greek Festival this year. Opa!
