They'll need the tight and crisp defense and stellar pitching exhibited in the victory Wednesday to be present in their battle with New York on Friday night, six days after falling to that very same team 6-3 in extra innings in the first game of the Metro Regional Tournament.
These days it seems more and more people are looking for something to make themselves feel better, something to rally behind and cheer on. Tonight may be the night to do just that for us here at the Jersey Shore.
The game was stopped in the first inning for the rain but then Holbrook from Jackson scored three runs in the second and nine in the third for the win.
In just a little while today, Jackson's Holbrook Little League team is hoping to recapture the magic and bring another Little League World Series title to the Jersey Shore.
Chris Cartnick’s grand slam in the bottom of the 5th inning snapped a 6-6 tie and powered Holbrook Little League (Jackson) to a dramatic 10-6 victory over the Pennsylvania champion Upper Providence Little League in Bristol, Connecticut Wednesday afternoon.
Our Toms River crew gave us an amazing run! Congratulations to everyone involved! Little leagues through out New Jersey and Ocean County are always so much fun to watch!
