This interview was conducted prior to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics postponement.
onica Abbott has represented the United States in softball in two Olympic Games: 2008 and 2020, winning silver medals on both occasions. The Tokyo Olympics definitely did not represent her only significant softball experience in Japan, having played several seasons for the Toyota Red Terriers in Aichi Prefecture. Abbott made history in 2016 when she signed a $1 million contract with the Scrap Yard Dawgs in the National Pro Fastpitch League, becoming the first woman on a team sport in the U.S. to ink such a deal.
