If one day Efren Navarro's bat from the bronze medal game of the 2019 Premier12 ends up in a hall of fame somewhere, it won't get there in one piece.
Not that it'll matter in the least to Mexican baseball fans. Navarro and his shattered bat are going down in history regardless.
Navarro sent Mexico's baseball team to the Olympics for the first time ever with a 10th-inning broken-bat single into center that gave the Mexicans a 3-2 win over the United States in the third-place contest at the Premier12 on Sunday afternoon at Tokyo Dome.
