Buske only gave up 2 runs on 3 hits with 3 strikeouts. Trailing 2-0 in the bottom of the 6th, Hilton Brown lead off the inning with a solo home run. Four batters later, Dalton Brieger tied the game 2-2 with a sac fly setting the stage for Killeen’s 7th inning heroics.

In the bottom of the 6th, Hilton Brown doubled on a 3-2 pitch that scored Zane Raba and Porter Brown to give Reagan a 6-5 lead they would not relinquish.

On top of the game winning RBI, Hilton picked up the win throwing 3 innings of relief giving Reagan the championship and younger brother Houston, Reagan’s bat boy, a great birthday present!!
