Thanks to a 3 run homer in the 9th inning against Japan, the US women go on to the gold medal game (as if anyone thought otherwise). What's more surprising than them getting to the gold medal game is that they had a game that went 9 innings! Most of their games are called after 5 innings due to the "mercy" rule.
UPDATE: The gold medal game will be against Japan, as they beat Australia in the bronze medal game. Do you think they will be out to even the score? You bet they will! Should be a great game! The game will be played at 630pm Thursday Beijing time.
