Tokyo Olympic competition opens with Japan-Australia softball game - theold - 21-07-2021
FUKUSHIMA
The Tokyo Olympics got underway after a one-year delay when Japan pitcher Ukiko Ueno started Australia's Michelle Cox with a ball at 9:02 a.m. Wednesday to open the women's softball tournament before a nearly empty Fukushima Azuma Baseball Stadium.
The teams lined up for the national anthems in a stadium with a listed capacity of 30,000 that had about 50 spectators, presumably team and Olympic officials, plus media.
