iBerkshires.com Sports
HOLDEN, Mass. -- The Bridgewater American 12-year-old All-Stars Saturday ended Pittsfield's run in the Little League state tournament with a 6-0 decision at Holden's CRA field.
For the second time in this tournament, one late inning was the difference.
In Thursday's tournament opener, it was a six-run five-run Bridgewater sixth that erased a three-run Pittsfield lead in an eventual extra-inning win for Bridgewater.
On Saturday, Bridgewater scored four in the bottom of the fifth to open up a two-run game.
Luke Schlatz went 2-for-3 with a double, and Anthony Sullivan hit a solo home run to lead Bridgewater's offense. Dominik Mombeleur struck out seven and allowed two hits in a complete-game win on the mound.
Myles Morrison-Gould had both Pittsfield hits, going 2-for-2 at the plate.
Carmelo Coco, Mason Fox and Sean Rozak split time on the mound, striking out four and allowing two earned runs.
