I watched the Japan game live. I agree that the PU in the USA/Japan game was a little tough on the Japanese pitcher, not allowing anything above the belly button it looked like.

Question for anyone who might know. What is the ISF rule on obstruction? If it's like the current ASA rule now, on two steals to second base, Japan's F4 looked really close to getting an obstruction call--the first steal a definite call from me.

I've actually had no problems with the commentary from Matt Vasgergian and Michelle Smith. Maybe the fact that the game is on at 5 in the morning might make it sound ok. Maybe not.

I believe the U.S. plays at 2:30am on Tuesday morning (which is an hour from now). Not sure who they're playing.
