Santa Clara Breaks Through for First Win in League Championship Series; Now Trails 3-1
The Santa Clara Vampires have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Topeka West Chargers, winning, 10-6, at River Otters Ballpark. Vampires left fielder Ryan Falk went 2 for 3 with 2 doubles and a walk. He scored 2 runs. The win cuts the deficit facing the Vampires to 3-1 in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

Adrian Whiteford helped his team take an early lead with a 2-run double. It came in the first inning, making the score 4-0, Vampires.

Chargers manager Walt Muller did not take questions after the game, telling assembled reporters that he would hold a press conference "if and when we win the Little League World Series."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at River Otters Ballpark in Santa Clara.
