Olympic Women's Softball

NPR's Tom Goldman reports that it took 30 year's to make softball an Olympic sport, but yesterday, TEAM USA won the first ever game played in the Olympics, defeating Puerto Rico 10-0. Despite what the team feels is underexposure, TEAM USA has won fans wherever they've played, and the town of Columbus, where they've been training, has really taken them to their heart.
