Canada Falls to Chinese Taipei



(Surrey, BC)  Team Canada



In an Olympic preview, Chinese Taipei squeaked out a 3-0 victory over 
Canada in day two action at the 11th annual Canada Cup International 
Women’s Softball Tournament in Surrey, BC.



Canada threatened a number of times in the game, leaving 8 runners on base 
– 5 in scoring position, but could not manage to score against the Chinese 
Taipei Defense.  Chinese Taipei took advantage of their only chance to 
score in the bottom of the 6th inning on a single, a walk and a Canadian 
error.  Two insurance runs were later driven in with on a two out double.



“We played them tough for 5 innings and need to learn from our experience 
against them” stated Canadian OF Alison Bradley.  “We just need to execute 
better in key situations to beat this team.”



Auburn Sigurdson pitched a complete game for Canada.   She gave up 3 
unearned runs on 4 hits, striking out 4 and walking 2.  Alison Bradley had 
two of Team Canada’s hits and Angela Lichty had one.



Canada will play Chinese Taipei again in the first game of the Olympic 
Games on August 14th.
