Baseball is an Olympic event, the first game is Aug. 13. This is the last year for softball and baseball unless the Olympic committee makes a change, they voted to drop it after this year. Some think that the committee thinks baseball is so heavily dominated by the US, they want to drop it and that the committee thinks softball is women's baseball so they should drop it also.
