Peace Corps & JICA Get It On


While you were soaking your aching muscles in hot water last Friday, a softball game broke out at Slogway Park. The fine people of JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) and the Peace Corps got together for an exhibition game.

Even though it was only an exhibition, both teams had some fine ball players on the field. Word is, a few Amman Softball League teams are actively recruiting them.

A Peace Corps guy in a Red Sox shirt and an entire team from the country that brought us Daisuke Matsuzaka and Hideki Okajima. Fantastic.

Nevermind the score. Check out some clips...
