Keystone Little League now face Warner Robins, Georgia, a 5-4 winner over La Grange, Kentucky, at 8 pm round.

Lafayette is removed from the Little League World Series.

Children believe that, as in Waco, to get here, we got everybody,” Lafayette head Leland Padgett said. “We have come here and freezing has on us. We came from Waco, where it was 107. I do not know the answer. I do not know what happened (in our bats). It’s beyond me.”

A trip to Niagara loaded the bases again before Breon cleared the bases with a double to give his team an 8-0 lead.

Reeder added option of a gardener and McCloskey RBI capped the scoring with an RBI single to make it 10-0.

The only drama left was whether or not Breon was to complete the first no-hitter of the 2011 World Series.

“I knew nothing of non-hitter to the last entrance right before leaving the field. Tyler told me in the dugout.’s when I learned,” said Breon.

“I tried to explain to (Landon) as they were doing what we were doing. In such a situation is a difficult decision to take the guy with a no-hitter,” said Bill Garbrick. “Think what we can expect that Landon explained; He took it well.”

Miller came in and retired the final two batters on a fielder’s choice and floating to end the inning no-hitter four.
