There are a number of nations that have good baseball teams
US, Japan, Dom Rep. Venzuela, S. Korea, P Rico, Mexico, Canada, Curaco, Cuba, ect. but bcause "stars" cant play because of ML seson they dropped it because wasnt getting tv ratings or attendance. They dropped softball because US won every year. Once they go to under 23 for basketball no one will really care much about olympic basketball either just as olympic soccer is an after thought.

Some of the sports are funny. Doubles ping pong?
