SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. -- Little League rules impose a
limit of 85 pitches, a number that can make it tough to
throw a no-hitter. Grant Holman of Chula Vista, Calif.,
didnt have any problems Friday. Holman struck out 13 and
became the first player to toss a no-hitter in the Little
League World Series since the rule was put in place in
2007, leading Chula Vista into the second round with a 3-
0 victory over Grosse Pointe, Mich. With his seven
innings of work, Holman also became the first pitcher
since 1979 to throw an extra-inning no-hitter in the
LLWS. Standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 166 pounds, the 13-
year-old Holman outdueled Grosse Pointes Chad Lorkowski -
- another stout young pitcher at 6-3 and 219 pounds. The
12-year-old Lorkowski struck out 12 in six innings but
exhausted his 85-pitch allotment. He walked two batters
and hit another. Grosse Pointe manager Tom Mazzola
praised both pitchers. "That kid throws hard," Mazzola
said about Holman. "Hes 6-foot-4, he has a nice curveball
and he hits his spots. We havent quite faced a pitcher
like that, but the same goes for our big fella. Chad for
his size and weight is remarkable." Each pitcher was
clocked throwing fastballs in the low-to-mid 70s. "He was
going out there. He was dealing," Chula Vista coach Rick
Tibbett said about Lorkowski. "And we knew they had to
bring someone else in and we knew we were going to hit
him." Chula Vista ended a scoreless tie against Grosse
Pointe reliever Antonio Moceri with three runs in the top
of the seventh. Micah Pietila-Wiggs drove in the third
run with the fourth hit of the inning and his second hit
of the game. Holman narrowly missed a perfect game with
only one walk and got some help from his defence to enter
the seventh with eight pitches to spare before he reached
the limit. Holman said one of his teammates
"accidentally" said something about his no-hit bid in the
dugout. "And I walked the next batter," the pitcher said
with a laugh. On Sunday, Chula Vista will face Newark,
Del., which beat Urbandale, Iowa, 6-3. Grosse Pointe will
take on Urbandale on Saturday in the losers bracket. In
the international bracket, Tokyo beat Brno, Czech
Republic, 7-3, and Taoyuan, Taiwan, routed Ottawa,
Ontario, 10-2. Taiwan and Japan will face each other
Sunday, while the Canadians will take on the Czechs on
Saturday. DELAWARE 6, IOWA 3 Joseph Davis allowed one hit
in 4 2-3 innings and Newark held on to win after scoring
five times in the first inning. The Mid-Atlantic
champions had six hits in the first, including for
straight by Nathan Hardcastle, Davis, Eric Ludman and
Jack Hardcastle. Jared Owens added a two-run single and
Ryan Miller followed with a run-scoring triple. Brady
Roberts and Sam Petrillo had Iowas only two hits. Roberts
drove in Brock Heinen in the first. Iowa scored its other
runs on a passed ball in the second and a wild pitch in
the seventh. Davis and Nathan Hardcastle, who pitched 1
1-3 innings in relief, each had two hits for Newark.
JAPAN 7, CZECH REPUBLIC 3 Kazuki Ishida hit a two-run
homer and Kyousuke Kobayashi drove in a pair of runs with
a double to lead Tokyo. Shou Miyao singled home a run in
the first and Kobayashi added his double later in the
inning. The Japanese champions made it 6-0 in the second
on Ishidas homer and an RBI double by Shunpei Takagi. Six
pitchers combined on a two-hitter for Japan in the first
LLWS game for a team from the Czech Republic. The Czechs
broke through in the third on Daniel Stoudeks two-run
homer. The Europe and Africa champions cut it to 6-3 in
the top of the fifth on a pair of errors by Japan before
Ryusei Hirookas RBI single in the bottom half provided
the final margin. TAIWAN 10, CANADA 2 Chou Shih-Che, Lan
Huai-Chien and Yeh Tung-Jua homered to lead Taiwan. Chou
had a three-run shot in the first inning, Lan added a
two-run homer in the second to make it 5-0 and Yeh had a
two-run homer in the fourth. Yeh allowed just one hit in
three innings -- retiring the first eight hitters of the
game -- to get the win. He struck out four and didnt walk
a batter. Angus Adams homered in the fourth for the
Canadians.

Noel that its work first and skill second, and that more
“A” games are needed, the Jets responded with a 47-shot
effort. If not for terrific goaltending by Braden Holtby
the Jets would have had two points in regulation.

Kong and first since 2011.

in that time to help paint a better picture.

finally emerging from two years of being strapped under
the NFL salary cap, and could be bigger players in free
