In the late game, the visiting Rockledge Little League (RLL) met Mims Little League (MLL). MLL’s Jasper Crane hit a home run, but it wasn’t enough as RLL’s Cody Smith had a double and the team surged with a 10-run fifth inning to win 24-6 in five.

Rockledge’s Ace Munchback was the winning pitcher.

In the first game of the day, the visiting Port St. John Little League (PSJLL) wrangled with Merritt Island Little League (MILL).
