Manhattan Beach Little League Junior All-Stars Post Loss
Aug 08, 2015 03:02PM ● By Mb News Staff
Right fielder Colin Livingston not only has a dependable glove, but his strong arm has thrown out numerous batters at first base.
Despite a close 4-1 loss to a team from Nogales, AZ Saturday, the Manhattan Beach Junior Little League All-Stars still have a shot at winning the West Regional Tournament and making it into the World Series.
To do that, the team will have to win all of its remaining games, two regular pool play contests and a potential semi-finals matchup and the tournament's championship game.
MBLL Manager Keith Ramsey, who described the loss to tournament-favorite Arizona as " (We) Played a very good Nogales team and didn't make enough plays to win" also said the team just has "to take care of business" for the remainder of the tournament.
There are two pools in the tournament: MB is in Pool A with Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Pool B includes Gilroy Little League representing Northern CA, Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, and Nevada.
Should Oregon and MB end pool play at 3 wins and 1 loss, the tie break will go to the team that has allowed fewer runs per defensive inning played. Thus far, MBLL has given up four runs in 12 innings and Oregon has given up six runs in 14 innings.
The West Regional Tournament is being played at Propstra Stadium in Vancouver, WA.
