Description
Australia faced host nation and defending 2008 champion Japan in the first event of the 2020 Summer Olympics. Yukiko Ueno started for Japan and allowed a leadoff single to Michelle Cox. After a flyout, Ueno walked a batter and hit another, loading the bases. Taylah Tsitsikronis was hit by a pitch, scoring Cox and giving Australia a 1–0 lead. Kaia Parnaby started for Australia. In the bottom of the first, Yu Yamamoto tied the game for Japan on a two-out single to right field. Minori Naito broke the tie in the third inning on a two-run home run, and Japan led 5–1 in the fourth after another home run by Yamato Fujita. Tarni Stepto replaced Parnaby on the mound mid–inning, allowing a hit and sacrifice fly to give Japan a 6–1 lead. Miu Goto came in after Ueno allowed a one-out walk in the fifth inning and struck out Chelsea Forkin with the bases loaded to end Australia's threat. In the bottom of the fifth, Yu Yamamoto ended the game on a homer to center field, making it 8–1 and triggering the Olympics run-rule victory.
