When it gets to this point, it is so much fun to watch and the quality of baseball is always way past what you might expect from 12 year olds.....but last night I watched probably the worst game in the history of the LLWS, but it was competitive and very compelling.  

Caribbean 12
Japan 11

In a 6 inning battle full of wild pitches and errors the Caribbean team comes to bat with 2 in the bottom of the 6th to win.  Final play saw runners on first and third with one out and a 11 all tie....batter pushed a bunt up the first base line and runner from third held...until the fielder threw to first and the runnier from third broke and made a nice slide to score the winning run.

It was a terrible game but someone had to win :)

Anyway their are games all week on ESPN and the deuce and they are quite entertaining.

Seems to me  the kids act more adult than the (MLB ) adults.


Thank you
2009 = 27

I was watching the Warner Robbins Ga vs Staten Island NY game the other day since I'm a Georgia native. One of the Staten Island kids came up and they showed his profile, height, weight, etc, and they listed his favorite movie as "Superbad." I'm sorry, but what kinda dipshit parent would let their 11 or 12 year old kid watch that movie? This country's going to hell in a handbasket!

No doubt entertaining. Not nearly the quality of baseball as 12yo pony leagues. LL is an ESPN marketing campaign like Hannah Montana. It's all Disney.

Over the past 8 years, LL has moved the age twice. It is obvious that many kids are now too big for the LL diamond.

That wasn't a real artful game but it sure  was entertaining to watch.
