Brooks McFarland singled with two outs in the sixth inning to drive in teammate Owen Guzman, giving Henderson, Nev., a 6-5 walk-off win over Hamilton, Ohio, at the Little League World Series in South Williamsport, Pa., on Friday.

Ohio jumped out to a 2-0 lead after RBI singles by Leo Feltner and Finn Dykes, but Nevada evened the score in the bottom of the second on an RBI double by Michael Kleiner and a single by Maddox Bryan that drove in Kleiner.

Three singles and a walk led to three runs in the fourth for Ohio, which reclaimed the lead at 5-2, only to see Nevada put up two runs in the fourth and one in the fifth to move the score to 5-5.

Ohio threatened in the sixth when Josiah Infante singled and Feltner walked, but a flyout in foul territory and a double play ended the scoring chance and allowed Nevada the opportunity for the walk-off win.


Mexico 7, Australia 1

Mexico managed only three hits but took advantage of seven walks, four hit batters and three errors to defeat Australia.

Australia pitcher Aaron Dare walked the bases loaded in the first inning, and two errors and a fielder's choice cleared the bases, giving Mexico a 3-0 lead.

The lead jumped to 5-0 in the third after Matias Garcia reached on an error, advanced on a flyout and scored on a single by Jorge Fonseca, who later came in on a sacrifice fly. Australia broke through with a run in the top of the fifth, only to have Mexico add two more in its half of the inning.

Mexico pitchers Fonseca, Esteban Bautista and Paul Lavenant combined to allow five hits and strike out 11.
