Amazing comeback to lose

[Sdpm100]

Okay, this came from a test (so no game log unfortunately) for the Baseball World Cup, between Japan and Cuba, which ended with a finish I haven't seen before.

After five scoreless innings, Japan opened the scoring with four runs in the 6th, before stretching the lead in the top of the 8th when PoG Chikao Sakiyurai hit a two run homerun to make it 6-0.
With the game seemingly over, the anaemic Cuban batters staged a remarkable comeback, and scored eight runs in the 8th to take the lead, and stun the Japanese players.
But instead of letting that setback get them down, the Japanese scored three runs in the top of the 9th to re-take the lead at 9-8, and then got the final three outs to hold on for the win.

I wonder if anyone's seen a similar or even more incredible finish where a team comes from so far back to either win or take the lead but still lose?

Off-topic. Are you making/testing a WBC roster set? From looking at the box score it appears that you have created at least some guys.

Just the Cubans, the other players are just imported from MLB, *** or my dynasty created EuroLeague. They're not "real" ratings either, I've just used equivalencies to other players.

EDIT: Also this tournament is set in 2008.
