The Five Cities 13-under Babe Ruth All-Star baseball team has advanced to the 2018 World Series after winning the Pacific Southwest Regional title Saturday in Surprise, Arizona.
Five Cities fell to Hawaii, 8-5, in the first game of the double-elimination championship. In the second game, Five Cities rallied in extra innings to beat Hawaii, 7-6. Brody Botinni hit a walk-off single to win the game in the bottom of the eighth.
The 2018 World Series will be held in Mountain Hill, Arkansas from August 9-16.
If you’d like to donate to their trip, the team created a GoFundMe page with a $5,000 goal.
