Things didn't look so good early for the reigning Western Regional champions in the 2010 ALB World Series, as they trailed 4-0 in the fourth inning. The Nevada state champs answered back with a run in the bottom of the fourth, before Kernersville, North Carolina plated another run in the sixth.
Las Vegas scored five unanswered runs to stun the Southeast Regional champions. Starter Alex Estrella had a decent outing for Nevada, as he gave up four runs in six innings. Reliever Brooks Klein came in and surrendered just one hit in two scoreless innings before turning it over to Blair Goldsack for the flawless save.
Kernersville starter Nick Rhodes gave up four runs, three of which were earned, in six and a third innings. Reliever Evan Orenstein took the loss after he gave up two runs in less than two innings of work.
Kernersville, NC moves to the loser's bracket where they'll take on the loser of Branford, CT/Moline, IL in game 5 at 1pm eastern. Las Vegas, NV will play the winner of that game in game 7 at 7pm eastern.
Stay tuned for more updates on the tournament being held in Spokane, Washington all night long!
