Two late runs weren't quite enough for Hills at the Junior League World Series, as they were defeated 7-2 by Mexico.
That result means Hills are eliminated from Junior League World Series contention, after falling in consecutive games.
Despite the losses, Hills made history as the first team from the Australia region to win consecutive games at the Junior League World Series, claiming victories against Europe-Africa and Canada in the first two days of competition.
Mexico piled on the runs in the first three innings, opening up a seven run lead.
Will Edwards capped off a solid tournament with a spectacular relief outing for Hills, keeping the Mexican offence at bay with four scoreless innings. Edwards also chimed in with the bat, picking up a double in the second inning.
Hills plated two late runs care of Stephen Courtney scoring on a wild pitch and an RBI from Cole Buck, however Mexico held on to advance to the International Championship game.
