Question: The game in Houston is only 4 innings. If it almost got called after 2 innings, it's obviously pressed for time. Although called safe for the win, if Kelly was called out at home plate at the end of the 4th, the game would have ended in a tie. No extra innings would be allowed for sure this time due to time factor, so how would a winning team be determined to play in Japan?

Continuity mistake: When at the hotel, as the television news reporter in the background is interviewing Ahmad, we hear Ahmad say "We worked hard all season" followed immediately by the lady who runs the hotel shouting really loud. However, when the team watches the news on TV and see themselves, Ahmad says "we worked hard all season" followed by another sentence or two but this time we don't hear the lady shouting.

Answer: 1) The Bears HAD to win in order to go to Japan and thus a tie would mean the Toros played Japan (like a champion retaining his title after a draw in a title fight). Or 2) They played a 2nd game at a later time.
