The Dutch have had a habit of coming out of the dugout to greet players who score runs during the World Baseball Classic.
With the way they were swinging their bats against Israel, it was hard for anyone to get too comfortable on the bench.
Didi Gregorius drove in five runs, three on a home run in the fourth inning, red-hot Wladimir Balentien finished with three RBIs, and the Dutch ran over Israel 12-2 on Monday night at Tokyo Dome to keep their hopes of a second-straight berth in the WBC semifinals alive.
