United States softball swarmed their hero Amanda Chidester after her extra-inning single beat Australia 2-1 during the penultimate day of round-robin play.
The Americans could secure a date with Japan in the gold-medal match if the Olympics hosts hold off third-place Canada later on Sunday.
The United States, wearing red from hair ribbons down through pants, raced to Chidester at midfield to celebrate the walk-off victory. But after retiring Forkin, Abbott walked in a run by nearly scrapping Jade Wall's shoulder with a 112 kmh rise ball. It was the first run United States have allowed in the tournament.
