SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) -- Kalen is most definitely spelled with a "K."

Kalen Pimentel tied a Little League World Series record for a regulation, six-in
ning game with 18 strikeouts to lead Rancho Bueno Vista of Vista, Calif., to a 7
-2 victory over Owensboro (Ky.) Southern in the Little League World Series on Sa
turday.

"It took me a couple of innings to get adjusted and I started to get in a groove
 about the fourth inning," Pimentel said. "My fastball and curve were really wor
king well."

The feat was last accomplished in 1979 by Chao-An Chen of the Pu-Tzu Town team f
rom Taiwan.

Nathan Lewis had three hits including a home run for Rancho Bueno Vista (1-0), t
he West region champion, while Luke Daugherty homered for Owensboro Southern (0-
1), the Great Lakes winner.

Pimentel's pitching highlighted the busiest day of the 10-day tournament -- six
games in two stadiums all scheduled to start within a nine-hour span on Saturday
.
