The USA bounced back from two opening day losses to score a big upset on Wednesday in the Intercontinental Cup at Prague, Czech Republic. Argentina led 4-3 in the bottom of the 7th, with Pablo Migliavacca pitching. When the USA bunted the tying run to second, Argentina opted for ace Roman Godoy. Young Jonathan Lynch of Cape Girardeau, Missouri stepped to the plate. After taking the first pitch, the left-handed hitting Lynch drove an outside pitch over the left field fence for a game-winning, 2 run walk off homer.
