Covering sports in a unique way since 2018.
If you’re looking for high quality sports content, then this is the channel for you! I’ve covered Baseball (NCAA, LLWS, Professional), Football (NCAA, NFL), Softball (NCAA), Basketball (NBA, NCAA), Hockey (NHL), and much more!
The best part of my work as a RUclipsr is being able to provide coverage of sports that may not receive as much attention as they should to the large audience I have built over the years. Many of the sports I cover aren't posted by any other RUclipsrs, which makes this channel that much more important.
One of my favorite accomplishments is revolutionizing the way sports channels create thumbnails. I've adopted two different styles, one with logos on the left and a game snapshot on the right, and the other with the logos in the middle and game snapshots representing both teams on either side.
I have a combined 4 years of experience as a Baseball & Basketball Play by Play announcer, which is where I learned my skills for commentary/breakdowns.

I love japans sportsmanship. Bowing to the umpire after they strike out takes a real man to do that
Notice the Japanese kids bow to the ump on a called strike 3. They don’t throw a hissy fit and complain, they don’t slam their bat down and cry like babies. The difference is parenting and respect. US teams could learn a ton from those kids
Dare I say s dirty word? Discipline.
@@user-xu8ki2kn5x say it loud and proud my man
Discipline is Japans religion
That's because Japan had to bow to their emperor
Respect...&... likely as not next time up things could EASILY go more your way.
That HR had no business going that far.
No kidding and the bat he was using looks like the old Easton stealths
Do you think something was up with the bat? I know he was a good size kid.. but he didn't even get a swing at it.. the bat was just tossed at it.. and it went further than some homeruns that kids get a good handle on.
@@snickers882 I mean they’re supposed to check bats but that bat looks just like the old stealths and them bats had stupid pop and that swing looked like it should have been a pop up for sure and dude hit it over the camera man Japan always has some sketchy shit going on tho
Or maybe he just has good talent and a good swing😕😏
@@bryantclay2239 idk man them asian kids in general are just different at baseball, I think half of hawaii's team every year is some type of asian kids but they're not really doing that well this year.
Thank you wheels for these I've been watching since 2022 for college world series and llws
JAPAN IS BACK !!!!! 🇯🇵 this looks like their best team in years
Relax it’s one game… every game is different here
they are very good havent lost all year
These are your 2024 world champs.
@@Brandon-qd2lbya momma
I agree, they look good! The only problem they are going to have is when they meet the cheaters from Taiwan...hopefully they can beat them.
Always loved and respected Japan. Great showing from those boys.
How did he hit that ball out to center?! It was in the other batters box! Kid is a stud
Wheels lightning fast with his uploads! Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Comes back from beer run, "what did i miss?"
These Japanese kids have amazing fundamentals. Crazy discipline in every aspect of the game. 👍
12u Little League playing at 46/60 is absolutely absurd.
100% Most programs (out side LL) stop playing at those dimensions at 11U. 12 U us 54Ft mounts and 75 ft bases with 285 to CF. Japan vs Texas in the finals btw
@@Sentinel_eyethat’s why llb has so much action. Intermediate they play actual real baseball and play regulation field size.
Most of the differences in field dimensions are for safety reasons. The USSSA bats they use outside of LL are ridiculous. It makes average players good, good great and great dangerous.
@@Sentinel_eye I played in American Congress baseball
In 12u was 50/70
And we start play with 60/90 at 13
And we played with the no stealing the pitcher rule un 8u
We start stealing the pitcher at 9yo and 10u competitions was with 40/60 dimensions
The point it’s why LL still using this dimension
Facts my lil brother team in 12u was playing on 300ft fields they was playin 250 in 9u and 10u they won the usssa World Series 3 years straight from 9-11u l
Japan looking like they gonna win whole thing
2:52 よっしゃー！you can tell that's what he said and felt!!!
Uh oh. Japan looks like champs.
2024 world series champs..
JAPAN
Can’t wait to see Japan vs Venezuela
Japanese kids grow up watching Ohtani
Its a very good cycle
Mad respect to all the Japanese players, nicer than the Canadians
Just wanted to take time out to thank WHEELS!! I work 10 hr days and never get to see the LLWS. THANK YOU FOR ALL U DO!!! I watch every year. And all the softball games too
Game was over in the 1st😂😂
They need to re-draw the batter's boxes during the game. Japan's hitters are standing on the plate.
Then pitch inside.
@@vermontmike9800they’ll hit them.
@@vermontmike9800 Little kids don't have the savvy.
This is legit. Hard to tell if the batters foot is outside the lines or whatnot. So many of these hits look like they should have been outs because the batter was not inside the box, with a foot firmly infront of the plate or on the plate.
"The batter is not out merely for having their foot touching the plate when they hit the ball. A batter is out if they hit the ball (fair, foul, or foul tip) with one or both feet on the ground and completely outside of the batter’s box [(Rule 6.06(a)]. If part of the batter’s foot is touching home plate and part of the foot is touching the line of the batter’s box when the ball is hit, the batter’s actions are legal."
They do this every year , they always doing weird shit 😂
This game ended 5 minutes ago bro
It's black magic
Wow what a fun game to watch, i knew who the winner was before the game even started. Weeeeee
Mexico vs Japan will be a good game
Leugim Beltrán buen trabajo siempre dando todo!❤ Puerto Rico
Se escucha tu mamá y tu papá gritando !
Wow! First game for Japan and they mercy Puerto Rico.
日本のピッチャー玉速いね！
Japan would have better contact if they didnt crowd the plate. The homerun pitch was like a foot off the plate... hard to judge how good they are this year when Puerto Rico was so bad. Making Canadas defense look good 😅
Japan stole home four times on wild pitches. That alone wins this game. Puerto Rico needs to work on that.
Go Japan🔥
10:09Today's best pitch.
Hard to tell if Japan looked good, because PR looked like a 10U rec ball team. Never seen so many dropped thrown and hit balls… are they using a 2x4 as a baseball glove?
Japan, Taiwan, and Texas are my top 3 ranked, but I'm hoping an underdog team takes it home🤙. Maybe my home state (Washington), but it's a long shot
The asian pitcher looks pro.
This Kanta Iwashita, is obviously inspired by Shohei Ohtani. 2-way player at that age that good? And Japan will surely develop him and peobably already has some high school powerhouse monitoring him for when he gets to high school.
この２つのチームから将来MLBプレイヤーが出ることを楽しみにしてます😊
After watching all the usual suspects for world regions and states who historically bring the strongest teams, this tournament is Japan's to lose. They are by far the best team imo.
An all-around good Japanese team with a big power hitter? Is it 2012 again?
A few Japanese players had their feet outside the box and almost on the plate when they swung. Probably something the umpire should have called out and stopped them.
All these Easton hype fire bats and the only home run hit was with an unknown bat(i can't tell what it is), that bat seems super over hyped even if it is just the "usa" version I couldn't see myself buying one for my kid.
no usa bat has pop
USA bats are intentionally made to not perform. Composite bats do break down and get hotter the more they are used before they crack.
6:51 450 FT , DEAD CENTER 🔥🔥💣💣
Shohei who!?
Japan had multiple players get hits with their foot touching the plate.. is this something teams could start challenging on them to get an out call?
Wtf.. Japan's ace is 10 years old throwing 76mph...
Japanese hitters were way toooo close to the home plate 6:12 he was even stepping on the plate
What is it with LL catchers who are taught to set up 2' outside?
That was embarrassing for Puerto Rico with being involved with LL and know they give them the best equipment when you get to Williams port for free and still hanging the throat guard with string is ridiculous. As Puerto Rican and cheering in them was sad to see no pride
Don’t see any other teams competing against these little Shoheis lol
Puerto Rico needs a new catcher
The batters box is basically non existent when Japan plays and it’s ridiculous. Some of those players had their shoe tips on the plate during certain at bats.
Grew up there (Japan) played aLOT of ball. They always wanted to play with US cuz junior high teams there only played with a stupid rubber ball...
W
.. Puerto Rico's Catcher Is Not-Very-Good .. Sloppy Player .... Pitchers Are ALSO "VERY-SLOPPY" ..
I don’t understand how u cant steal in 12u baseball 😂 my brother started taking leads at 10u travel ball
How did PR make it this far?
Why did they skip bottom of the 3rd?
Puerto rico is 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pr needs better work on defense!
And that’s it’s the result of the no interest in competition of LL baseball in PR
Normally the 12u elite players plays in American Congress or Boyz Baseball
Little league baseball in Puerto Rico it’s only relevant in Guayama. The other 71 towns in the island doesn’t care about LL baseball and honestly it’s kinda sad
Is that an Easton Stealth ???
そうか。今日だったな。やっぱMLBと違ってU15になると日本は強うござるよ。でもプエルトリコも侮れん。
The Japanese hitters are in the strike zone they are so close to the plate. Why can't the umpires see this?
Most of these kids from Japan are right on top of the plate, PR pitchers couldn't throw inside at all. Kept throwing outside and just fed the offense for Japan.
It’s called getting in their head. Nothing wrong with it. Japan plays smart.
@@Seducers definitely. Hitting is difficult, but you cut down 2/3 of the area that you're looking at for pitches it's a great advantage.
GO BACK TO THE OLD BATS!!!
Damn who picked the Puerto Rico team players
They aren't picked genius. It's a local little league team from Puerto Rico.
You do know this right? It's not the country of Puerto Rico, it's just a LL team representing Puerto Rico
They need to eliminate aluminum bats in little league. I played with wood in the 80's it was great. Kid hit a HR over everything not good for baseball.
Most are using composites now.
35 pitches in the first inning my god😭👎🏾
why are they using utrips
That’s the USA version
My question is, Puerto Rico is too bad or Japan is so good?
Both. You see how sloppy PR is playing. Japan doesn’t commit errors like PR
Since when did that batters box extend over the plate? Some of the Japanese batters should be out for making contact with the foot either on the plate or in front of the plate. The box lines weren’t even noticeable.
does Puerto Rico know anything about pitching & catching the ball????
Every Japan hitter is out of the box when making contact
The batter's entire foot has to be outside of the box (no part of the foot touching the chalk line) for the batter to be called out after making contact. A couple of swings that may have been out but by rule most were not completely outside the line. Umps should have the batter's box lines re-chalked mid-game so it's clearer.
Watching New York vs Nevada. New York can’t figure out the pitcher is not the cut off man.
Pop up in foul territory- Nevada pitcher and first baseman collide and ball is dropped. It’s the first baseman’s ball. You never want your pitcher to catch a pop up. It’s low baseball I.Q.
Runner tries to score on hard hit to left field. Out by 25 feet. Terrible baseball.

Puerto rico is weak this year, very sloppy team
Most teams are compared to Asian teams .. this Japanese team practices for 10 hours a day on the weekends .. crazy
@@brianmeen2158 and 5 hours, Mon-Fri, 12 months a year.
Guayama is a small town of maybe 7,000 people?.. Puerto Rico did not combine all their best players from PR..… Japan put out all their best players from all leagues, so yes big difference.
@@rubenowitzv.3135 The Japanese team is not an all star team, it’s a local club team
HAHAHAHA QUE CLASE DE SALSA LE DIERON LOS JAPONESES
How to beat Japan: paint the inside corner every batter. Some of them are stepping on home plate when they swing. Umps need to call them out on it
Can they not lead off at this age or were the rules changed within the last 10 years?
What rock have you been living under? You've never been able to lead off in 12U.
If you could you would be stealing bases all day
楽勝や
bro hit a hr with an easton stealth, how is that not banned
That was not a stealth. Look up Easton Quantum -5.
Los Boris pitchers 🤢🤢🤢
Umpires are so trash at this level id hate to be a pitcher
Most of these umpires are high school & college umpires just volunteering their time for the LLWS
Puerto looks horrible , too many errors
That uashita? # 19 on Japan Kid is he gonna be this years fan chen jun
岩下..Iwa 岩 the I is pronounced as a long e...下 shita...the i is not pronounced ee WA shta.
All right thanks
@@JohannTomasicyk-c9x Cheers
Japan’s hitters are all standing on top of the plate. Strategic against pitchers with LL level command who cannot exploit the inside part of the plate without risking a hit batter. They force walks and get completely jammed on pitches over the plate. High tech bats that take away the sting of a jam shot while giving a decent chance of clearing the infield with a bloop and opposing pitchers without confidence to come inside make this strategy possible. Ugly to watch a winning strategy that warps the game pretty badly made possible by bat technology not player skill. The only decent contact not pulled was a foot off the plate.
Sounds like sour grapes. Can you appreciate almost perfect defense by the Japanese? Hitting is up to the umpires to regulate, not keyboard warriors. My kid pitches little league, he has no issues pitching inside and drilling a kid or two to get them off his plate. You watch these PR kids they are scared to even get close. If the kid is comfortable getting close to home plate, go for it to cover more of the plate.
@@stann2001 it is an aesthetic argument sir. Ugly ball is ugly, even if it wins. Your values displease me. Thank you very much, good day sir.
First
Puerto Rico has bad fundamentals. The worst I've seen from them in a long time.
pitcher mas bolon hahahahah
They got check on these Japanese s ages they look grown af 😂
