<h3><strong>USA-Japan</strong> <strong>2-0</strong></h3>

<p>Megan Faraimo limited Japan to three hits and Jessie Warren put the United States ahead with their first hit of the game, a triple off the wall in right field.</p>

<p>Japan chose Miu Goto as the starting pitcher, while the United States handed the ball to Megan Faraimo.</p>

<p>Goto threw three perfect innings to get started. Faraimo retired the first eight batters, six on strikes, before allowing a two-out double to Yume Kiriishi in the bottom of the third. </p>

<p>She got out of the inning on a flyout.</p>

<p>The US reached base for the first time in the top of the fifth and took the lead. Goto hit Jocelyn Alo to lead off the inning. Jessie Warren drove the first pitch she saw off the wall in right field, scoring pinch runner Jesse Jefferson from first. </p>

<p>Dejah Mulipola singled to left field, extending the US lead to 2-0.</p>

<p>Yukiko Ueno relieved Goto in the top of the sixth.</p>

<p>Japan thought they had their first run in the bottom of the sixth. Ishikawa reached on a two-out double and scored on a base hit by Hotaro Tsukamoto. The US challenged the play, and the on-field review caught Ishikawa leading off too early from second base. She was called the third out.</p>

<p>Faraimo wouldn0t allow other scoring chances.</p>
