Despite a 10-0 loss to Asia-Pacific this morning, Hills has one more opportunity to reach the International Championship Game at the Junior League World Series.

No team from the Australia Region has ever played in an International Championship game.

Stephen Courtney smacked the first pitch of the ballgame for a double, however from there the Asia-Pacific defence tightened up, as Australia couldn't string together regular baserunners.

Asia-Pacific proved why they've won the past five Junior League World Series', racking up 10 hits in five innings.

Despite the two hits, Hills did a great job of putting the ball in play and making the Asia-Pacific defence work.

Hills will take on Mexico at 9am AEST tomorrow morning, with the winner advancing to the International Championship game to face Asia-Pacific.
