The Holbrook Little League team from Jackson has lost its first round of the Little League World Series to the team from Connecticut.

The team lost 7-6.

Holbrook was losing by five runs at the bottom of the last inning, but were able to make up four more runs. But in the end it was not enough to win.

The tournament is a double-elimination round, so they are not out just yet. They will play their next game Saturday at 3 p.m.

The team will play against the Little League team from Michigan, who lost against the Texas team Thursday evening.

Holbrook Little League is New Jersey’s first team to reach the World Series in five years.
