YOKOHAMA, Japan won its second straight Olympic softball gold medal, beating the United States 2–0 Tuesday in an emotional repeat of its 2008 victory in Beijing that again left the Americans in tears.

Japan led 2–0 when Michelle Moultrie singled leading off the sixth off hard-throwing 20-year-old left-hander Miu Goto.
Goto dealt Haylie McCleney her first strikeout of the Olympics with a 69 mph pitch at the hands, then allowed a single to Janie Reed.
