Beijing, China—It took only five innings for the USA Softball Women’s National Team to record its 100th win in World Championship play as they defeated Great Britain, 7-0, to remain unbeaten. The U.S. recorded its first win on Feb. 14, 1965, in Melbourne, Australia with a 1-0 win over New Zealand who happens to be the next opponent for the U.S. in this World Championship.
The World Softball Championship is one of the organised sporting events [the other's the Regatta] held in Beijing to test the organising elements for the upcoming Summer Olympics in 2008.
I guess both China and the US got something out of this one, eh?
