Explosive Offenses Dominate Wednesday Action

Sunday, the Toms River squad from New Jersey suffered a heartbreaking start to their Little League Softball World Series run with a 4-1 loss to Kinki LL from Sangō, Japan.

The Mid-Atlantic representatives avenged that defeat Wednesday in as dominant a fashion as possible, scoring 11 runs and shutting their opponents out.

The team battered Japan in the sixth inning, adding eight runs to what was already a 3-0 lead while Jaelyn Brown threw six scoreless innings, allowing just two hits, two walks, and striking out three.

In a similarly dominant fashion, the team from Snohomish, Washington, eliminated Canada. Starting pitcher Madison Locke was extraordinary, contributing in the circle and at the plate. She tossed six innings of one-run softball, with four hits, no walks, and a staggering 12 strikeouts. Offensively, she went 2-for-3, with an RBI and a run.

Both teams return to the field on Friday to battle the winners of Thursday’s games, with Washington up first at 3:00 p.m. EST and New Jersey after at 6:00 p.m. Both games will be televised nationally on ESPN.
