It’s also a very dumb rule that could backfire if Italy and Mexico agreed to mail it in so they can both advance.
That would be hard to do bc everybody would have to be on board and you're gonna piss everybody off including current teammates but yeah the rule is dumb.
 
What I don’t get is why we’re using defensive outs made as a potential tiebreaker. You’re not using RD due to the mercy rule, shouldn’t that also pertain to defensive outs? If you win by a mercy killing in the 5th inning, for instance, that’s 18 defensive outs you’re losing. How is that fair to the team that won by so much they had to call the game?

It also rewards teams who have to play extra innings.
