SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — James Gonzalez had two homers and six RBIs, including a grand slam, and Aguadulce, Panama, defeated Vancouver, British Columbia, 8-3 on Sunday to stay unbeaten at the Little League World Series.
After leaving the bases loaded and having a run taken off the board in the first due to a runner leaving early, Panama broke out for six in the second. Carlos Flavio started the outburst with a solo homer. Edisson Gonzalez also had an RBI single before James Gonzalez hit his grand slam.
Panama pitching limited a Canada team that scored 13 runs in a win Friday over Mexico. Edisson Gonzalez and Daniel Cruz combined for 13 strikeouts.
Canada’s Cole Dalla-Zanna drove in a run with a bases-loaded walk in the sixth, but Cruz ended the game with a strikeout.
