I just watched the Olympics Final and have witnessed a major upset as the US team was defeated in one of the most surprising upsets in these Olympics.
That will be a huge disappointment for the young ladies of the US Team who worked incredibly hard just like all other softball olympians in the world.
Congrats to Japan and their pitcher Ueno who threw 28 innings in 24 hours all by herself! What an amazing performance.
It might actually help the sport get back into the Olympics by showing the world that softball isn't just dominated by one country but is an international sport unlike the perceptions that softball is mostly a US sport.
All I can conclude with: "Games are played on the field, not on paper." Let's remember that as a highly valuable lesson for our young ladies.
