December 7

December 7 is the date the United States entered World War II with Japanese attacks on Guam, Wake Island, Pearl Harbor, United States forces in China, and the Philippines (at that point a Commonwealth of the United States and dependent upon the United States for defense).  The Japanese also attacked British colonies in Asia (Hong Kong, Malaya).

Neither the United States or Great Britain had the necessary resources to defend their possessions in Asia resulting in Japanese conquests that were not reversed until 1945.

Most military personnel in the Philippines (United States Army and Philippine Army) were surrendered in April and May of 1942.  Troops on Bataan (surrendered on April 9, 1942) endured the "Bataan Death March" with many deaths (perhaps 1,000 US and 5,000+ Filipino) resulting from disease / malnutrition but also from executions (murders) by Japanese guards.  Filipino prisoners were - in general - released in 1943 / 1944, although many had died in the prison camps.  United States prisoners - that had not died in prison camps - were either liberated in 1944/45 or shipped to Japan / Formosa / Korea as "slave laborers" and those that survived were freed in 1945 by either United States or Soviet troops.

In the reconquest of the Philippines the Japanese tried to hold the city of Manila, leading to a bloody siege with many Filipino civilians deaths - far more bloody and deadly than the Gaza siege has been (so far).

There has been some comment on the reaction of younger generations to the Hamas terror attack and subsequent Israeli response.  Please consider the following -

*My generation grew up with parents and teachers that were in World War II - there are few military veterans teaching in our schools now;

*The "Eichmann Trial" occurred in my youth - with a great deal of publicity of the German Holocaust - When is the last time you heard of Albert Eichmann?

and

The younger generation of the 21st century is far more diverse (ethnically) than my generation.  Western nations (United States, Canada, Europe) are more conversant with the German Holocaust - while those with Asian, African or Latin American backgrounds  have different histories of the World War II era.

In this day and age - with talk of "pilotless drones", "Precise targeting" and "crimes of war" - we must remember that our military - even when not at war - risks their lives every day (see the recent fatalities from the Osprey crash near Japan).

Those who choose to serve put their lives on the line to protect us - even when there is "peace" deserve out thanks and respect.

*Official box: http://www.statbroadcast.com/events/archived.php?id=468295

*Jim's unofficial notes:

*General note - a close, fast-paced and exciting game. Some errors / mistakes but well pitched (2 complete games, 1 walk, 9 strikeouts combined).

*Errors matter: A top of the 7th inning, 2-out error with bases loaded allowed Barrington/158 to tie the game at 1-1;

*Walks matter: Janesville/205 only issued one walk - a 2-out bases loaded walk in the top of the 7th to give Barrington/158 a 2-1 lead (Janesville/205 also had one Intentional Walk);

*Players need to know the game of baseball and the situation - with 1 out (runners 2nd & 3rd) in the bottom of the 5th (score 0-0) a flyball to center seems like a sacrifice fly - but the runner on 2nd was late returning to 2nd and was doubled off to end the inning;

*Keep your head in the game at all times - In the bottom of the 6th a 1-out/runner on 1st double scores the runner from 1st with a close play at the plate - but the batter is caught (in a run-down) trying to advance to 3rd on the same play;

*Jim's Narrative top of the 7th for Barrington/158 - score is Janesville 1, Barrington 0 -

(1) Strikeout; (2) infield single; (3) popup to short - 2 out!; (4) single to right, runner on 1st goes to 3rd; (4a) runner on 1st steals 2nd; (5) with 2-0 count Intentional Walk to load the bases; (6) ground ball to 3rd, attempting to tag runner the ball rolls free - 1 run scores (1-1), bases remain loaded; (7) RBI Walk, score now Barrington/158-2, Janesville/205-1; (8) linedrive out to RF; Janesville went 1-2-3 in the bottom of the 7th;

*Official box: http://www.statbroadcast.com/events/archived.php?id=468296

*Jim's unofficial notes:

*General note: A close game, tense with Eau Claire Post 53 leaving 10 men on base and Linwood Post 239 leaving 9. Linwood Post 239 had two critical errors in the bottom of the 7th.

*Eau Claire/53's starting pitcher Bennett Stokke took a pitch off his helmet in the 2nd inning, stayed in but left after pitching the 4th inning;

*Getting away with “freebies”?: Linwood/239 issued 7 walks, 3 hit-batters and 4 errors where the batter reached base - but only 2 of those 14 baserunners scored;

*The timing of “freebies” matters!: Linwood/239 gave up one walk and two errors in the bottom of the 7th to load the bases with 1 out - followed by the game-winning 2 RBI single;

*Double plays help: Linwood/239 had double plays in the first 3 innings stranding three Eau Claire/53 baserunners;

*Failure to capitalize: Linwood/239 had 5 men reach to start the 4th inning (single, single, HBP, RBI walk, RBI walk) but then a foul-out to third, a strikeout and a fly-out to center for only two runs.

*Jim's Narrative bottom of the 7th for Eau Claire Post 53 (Linwood/239-2, Eau Claire 53-1): (1) Batter safe at 1st (E3F); (2) Sac Bunt (1-3), baserunner advances to 2nd; (3) Walk (runners on 2nd, 1st); (4) Fielder's Choice/E4F to load the bases with 1 out; (5) A 2-run single to center, play at the plate on the 2nd runner ws too late (though close);
