USA Women's Team Advacing Through World Cup

The USA National Team started off the KFC World Cup of Softball with a bang and continues to move on with wins over Japan and Canada.

USA defeated Japan 4-1 on Saturday. Monica Abbott and Jennie Finch teamed up in the circle while the USA offense continued to produce the runs necessary to win the game. Read more about the USA vs. Japan game here.

Yesterday, Team USA secured a spot in the World Cup Championship game with their 7-0 run rule win over Canada. Jennie Finch earned her first win of the World Cup pitching 6 shut out innings, allowing only 3 hits, and striking out 8.

USA will face Japan in the championship game tonight which is scheduled for 8pm CST. Catch the game on ESPN2 - also available in High Definition. I already have my DVR set just in case something comes up and I'm not home for some reason. ;)
