12 Year Olds Crying - 2015 LLWS

Re: 12 Year Olds Crying - 2015 LLWS

Back to back to back for Japan, their last coming after a pitching change for PA. 10-7.

Over/Under 30 runs for the game?
 
Re: 12 Year Olds Crying - 2015 LLWS

Only 42,xxx in attendance today.

In 5 games in Williamsport, PA has played in front of about 190k fans combined. That's... incredible.
 
Re: 12 Year Olds Crying - 2015 LLWS

Japan now leads 13-10, heading to bottom 3rd.

That's right, not even halfway through and they've tied the record for runs in the championship game set in 1947.
 
Re: 12 Year Olds Crying - 2015 LLWS

Like the announcers said, this is one of the few LLWS games where fans will see a typical Little League game.

Although, even I can't remember playing in a game past coach pitch that was this high scoring by both sides.

Japan polishes it off 18-11.

Good to still see some smiles on the PA kids. They played some pretty fantastic baseball through the tourney.

I think people probably were scared of the travel/parking logistics especially after yesterday which made for a bit less. Plus tomorrow is the first day of school etc.

A wise philosopher once said, "It ain't over till it's over." Congrats to Japan for proving Yogi was right. Kudos to the boys from Lewisberry for a great run.

Great job to the Pennsylvania team. Fantastic. Anyway, as a coach of youth sports, how could you not plan ahead and save a few innings for a pitcher or two? C'mon coach.

Well, one of those "Do I waste them to get there or save them and possibly regret not getting there" dilemma.

I also don't think they planned on giving up almost as many runs in the championship as they did the entire summer combined. They ran a stat that said they had only given up 23 runs through 22 games or something like that coming into today.
