GREENVILLE, N.C. () — With a couple of swings at the plate, Pitt County not only beat the defending Little League Softball World Series champions, they got a measure of revenge and punched their ticket to Sunday's title game. Not a bad job on a hot and sunny day at Stalling Stadium at Elm Street Park. Pitt County rallied for two runs in the top of the sixth inning and held on for a 4-3 win over Hewitt, Texas, the defending champions. Texas opened the tournament with a 6-1 win over Pitt County last Sunday.
