SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — Brandon Miller led off the bottom of the first with a homer and combined with starter Landon Breon on a no-hitter to lead the Little League World Series’ hometown favorites from Clinton County, Pa., to a 10-0 rout Monday night of Lafayette, La.
Miller deposited a 2-1 pitch on to the hill packed with fans behind the right-field wall to start the rout. Pennsylvania tacked on seven more runs in the second, more than enough cushion for Breon. He struck out two and walked three before Miller came on in relief for the last two outs.
The game ended after the top of the fourth due to Little League’s 10-run rule.
Pennsylvania faces Georgia on Tuesday. The Pennsylvania team lives just 30 miles from South Williamsport.
