Northern Metros failed to match the power of Asia-Pacific in their opening game at the Little League Intermediate (50/70) Baseball Division World Series in Livermore, California, this morning.
Asia-Pacific put up early runs and used a big fourth to complete a 19-0 victory.
The Metros, representing Australia Region in its #LLIWS debut, kept Asia-Pacific off the scoreboard in the third inning.
Jacob Santich worked the frame and also recorded Australia Region’s first strikeout at the event.
Australia Region now faces the loser of Puerto Rico and Latin America on Wednesday morning.
