However, the TV schedule will be somewhat different--this is from the USA Softball site:

"The top seeded USA Softball Women’s National Team will take on second seeded Japan at 12:00 a.m. on Wednesday, August 20 (US; Eastern Time) on CNBC during the opening round of the page playoff format in the Olympic Games. The game will be tape-delayed 2 1/2 hours as the team will square off with Japan at 9:30 a.m./local on August 20."

So, if you want to watch the live stream on the Internet, it's tonight at 9:30 Eastern; if you want to watch the tape delayed version on TV, it's midnight tonight Eastern.
