With the International Cup on the line, USA Softball turned to Danielle O’Toole.
The former Arizona left-hander was given the start and allowed three runs in 3.1 innings as Team USA Red downed Japan, 10-5, in the championship game.
O’Toole exited in the fourth with a 4-1 lead and two runners in scoring position, but UCLA right-hander Rachel Garcia surrendered a two-run single to make it 4-3, adding a pair of earned runs to O’Toole’s ledger.
Still, O’Toole was in the line for the win until Japan tied it at 5-all with a two-run homer in the fifth.
