Team USA Baseball, which includes former UCLA and Edison High School star Eric Filia, is headed to the gold medal game Saturday in the Tokyo Olympics to face Japan.
Filia batted fifth in the order and was hitless in four at bats in the USA’s 7-2 victory over Korea in the semifinals on Thursday, according to UCLA Athletic Communications.
Filia has been the starting right fielder for Team USA.
Filia also had two hits and a stolen base in a 3-1 victory over the Dominican Republic earlier in the week, according to UCLA Athletic Communications.
