    They changed the schedule. They originally had a game on at 11 ET tonight when they thought the US was playing in that time slot. When the US game was scheduled for 4 they changed the schedule and the US game will be on.

    US gets their 1st 2 runners on but can't score as Rodriguez grounds into a double play.
