My soul hurt for Washington these past few days, good run. Kirchoff was fantastic and clutch pitching for Washington. Good luck with Jablonski vs Lappe.
I grew up and live in NE Seattle just like these kids and played in NE Seattle Little League growing up. These kids took the top 2 US teams who are from historically good states to the very end with the tying runs on 3rd at the end of both games. First team from the City of Seattle to make it to the LLWS, 3rd best US team and finish ed in either 5th or 6th place in the World. They deserve a big parade when they get home and a VIP experience at a Mariners game.
These lil guys where just great to watch and you have to be very proud of this whole team just tons of fun to watch tons of heart and i'm from Cal but W will be looked at for years
So bummed for my hometown kids; especially after that amazing game against Texas. Really wanted to see a rematch. GG Cali, good luck in the Championship 🤙
to be fair, in the face none of them look as old as taiwans ace but it was a bit jarring to see that brooks, lappe and kalish were 5’10, 6’1 and 6’0 respectively
For 80 plus years baseball dads were able to juggle the 9 man line up but now according to little league, they had to simplify it lol. It’s BS, LL just got some participation trophy guy whose still butthurt because he didn’t get to bat much as a kid.
Well played by both teams in this US lower bracket final. Heartbreaker for Seattle but congrats to El Segundo. US final: Needville (TX) versus El Segundo (CA) International final: Taiwan versus Curaçao (rematch)
Gonna be a masterful US Championship game on Saturday boys! Texas vs Cali... rematch! last game was amazing with these two... bold prediction... 6-4 walk off with California winning it in sixth inning...
Can either beat Chinese Taipei? Which teams stands the better chance? Will they have their best pitcher available? It’s pretty impressive how deep the pitching is with most of these teams
@@JJA1987 or maybe I actually have know some of the kids on the team? I’d say the 40 year old pedo who spends his entire summer hating on 12 year olds from california is a bigger rear end kisser.
Hey can I ask, is LLWS the best players at this age or just the best teams? In other words, if you put together all the best 12 yr olds in the USA they would be better than these teams?
@@nofurtherwest3474the team that play in the LLWS all have players that are from the same district, which could only be a few square miles big depending on the population of that area. so yeah, the 12u usa team that just won the WBC a couple weeks ago would demolish any of these teams. maybe chinese taipei would put up a fight but that’s about it
California vs Texas will be insane. Unpredictable who will win with the Jablonski/Lappe duel set up. No way is Curacao beating Taiwan after losing 9-1 especially now that the ace is available for Taiwan.
@@russellupsumgrub9633 He does in fact look like 15 or 16 but idk how that was possible. Remember how South Korea was supposed to come here? There was one player who was ineligible and they were disqualified. The people should've also suspected Taiwan or at least checked their ages too to make sure they weren't trying to pull the same stunt as South Korea.
@@supergio4551 so it's OK for California team to have 5'10" 6'0" players and not OK for Taiwan to have 5'8" pitching ace?? What is the basis of your accusation? Their darker skin? People eating rice aren't supposed to be that tall?
California is getting really hot at the right time. Question is, will Lappe be ready if they win the US Championship? Like I haven’t had the pleasure of watching the games. Can someone provide some insight
Yea they are they lost to southwest once already though 3/1 in round 3 so should be a really good game both teams have really good defense and pitchers
I honestly feel as if the kid on 1st hustled to 2nd it would have been atleast a possible challenge for safe or out? Not just lolly gag and give up on the play
@@JJA1987hate to break it to ya but it’s Taiwan and honestly not even close I am rooting for whoever the US team is but they’re gonna need a perfect game plus errors from the Taiwan team that never makes any. If they gotta face that pitcher that’s throwing 80 ggs
they 100% are people say this every year with the best team 2022 hawaii 2021 michigan 2019 curaco 2018 south korea and hawai’i and they never find anything out on them
@@JJA1987 yeah they’ve been faking lappe and brooks birth certificates since tee ball sure look up beach city prospects or braves baseball academy are they faking their birth certificates for travel ball too, u did this last year with hawaii and nothing was found out your pathetic jamie j albon
@@user-gm1ge4md2jthat’s what I’m saying like against curaçao it was 1-1 entire entire game until the 4th where the pitcher got tired and they ran out of good pitching
Great games but I cannot stand the announcer Karl Ravech, he has been announcing llws for a long time now, but he is terrible compared to Gary Thorne , Harold Reynolds’s, or Brett Musberger from a long time ago. And he only announces American League games for some reason he never does the international games for some reason .
Dude, these are kids in the little league world series and they held their own. They made tons of great plays in very high pressure situations throughout this competition. Take a breath.
Man that Chang kid is really good he definitely has a bright future in the sport
Bro I’m telling u Nolan chang is the fucking guy
His older brother Spencer is pretty good too
@@blackpool2006 I heard Nolan’s an even better swimmer
@@gbfjt8028Interesting. I never knew they also did swimming
Literally Washington’s best player. He’s a very good right fielder and understands the position so well

They were so close to winning both games
been pulling for em from ohio, they are just one small step behind and they look very young. what a run
Same here, grew up in Washington and I still remember when Kirkland won the World series in 82'🤙 these boys played so good, super proud of them!
I’m from WA too and I hope they still get to meet the Mariners, they deserve it!
@@ErlingEra Mariners said they’re celebrating them and a softball team at a game next month
Wow, Washington was so close to getting an extra run every inning. Very fun game to watch I didn’t expect them to be that good.
Great game from both teams defense was impressive!
Washington was so good feel bad last 2 games got lucky and lost by 1 run both games
These lil guys where just great to watch and you have to be very proud of this whole team just tons of fun to watch tons of heart and i'm from Cal but W will be looked at for years
Insane defense ! Both teams !
Great stuff Wheels. Keep em' comming!

This is great, so many memories. A group of my childhood friends from Elmhurst, IL are traveling next year for a weekend of memories.
one of the best games I've seen and ive been watching llws my entire life . wow
Chang is a solid ball player ⚾
This was a great game. This LLWS seems to be much better then recent years with the quality of the teams in it.
Played on the West team in 2011, and these guys have what it takes. Up there with the better West teams I have seen.
will watch this anyday!! Better than major leagues!!
This is one of the best baseball games I have seen all year (at any level)
What a great game by both teams!!! Thank you Wheels!!!
California little leaguers are either 6ft tall or 3.5ft tall. There is no in between.
And definitely not 12
wow. how come no one is talking about how many taller "men" are on this CA team?
to be fair, in the face none of them look as old as taiwans ace but it was a bit jarring to see that brooks, lappe and kalish were 5’10, 6’1 and 6’0 respectively
This rule where you have to hit the entire lineup has ruined the offense this year. Regardless both these teams played great defensively.
Little League is not real baseball.
For 80 plus years baseball dads were able to juggle the 9 man line up but now according to little league, they had to simplify it lol. It’s BS, LL just got some participation trophy guy whose still butthurt because he didn’t get to bat much as a kid.
@@timothypalm4403 and what about leading off and stealing bases.?
Where did they find the home plate umpire, at a blind person’s convention? No way he should be calling balls and strikes.
Good heads up action. It sure brought out the best in each player
Yes!, Let’s Go!!! GOONIES of
El Segundo, Ca.. Going for the W.
Dang these kids can catch. Washington’s 3b was busy
Wow great defense all the way through!
At 8:54 behind the foul pole is me and my dad sitting on the grass no joke.
Kirchhoff Lowkey nasty with the pitching the whole tournament
What a great game!
HP umpire has the same movement as a flagpole. Stands stiff legged behind the dish while baserunners run around...
Kirchoff is definitely my favorite LLWS player this year, Jablonski very high up there too. gg, Seattle you played your heart out.
I'm really impressed with how freakin talented all these 11 and 12 year olds are! Maybe a couple will actually make it to the big league some day.
Cha Chang will soon be makin the Cha Ching
Well coached teams.
changs got a nice swing
kind of sad to see a team of 6 foot tall 12 year-olds knocking out the other teams
how is that sad?
@@thekingelp3551 He thinks 12 years with early growth spurt is unfair with kids with slow spurt.
5:51 the ball flies off that kids bat so much different than everyone else
Well played by both teams in this US lower bracket final. Heartbreaker for Seattle but congrats to El Segundo.
US final: Needville (TX) versus El Segundo (CA)
International final: Taiwan versus Curaçao (rematch)
We didn’t you put rematch for cali vs Texas?
@@TheRealGioRuizbecause taiwan and curaco was the matchup last year
Cali kids been drinking the protein shakes.
Those outside strike calls by the blind umpire wouldn't even be called in the majors. Those are some really bad calls.
I'm born and raised in California I'm going for California
California’s shortstop was smooth besides some bobbling that shi was clean and he has an arm
big jablonski is gonna spin for trey

5:10 really good play 😮
You da man, Wheels!
Thx, Wheels.
Chinese team is very good and will be hard to beat. The little league world series is just amazing. I hate when it's over
chinese team is out, they lost
It’s actually Taiwanese team
@@khjhs40400 i can't believe they lost, but curacao was using a pitcher that didnt look 12
crazy watching these kids show way more skill than my high school varsity team had and we were league champs
The game is so much more fun to watch since they moved the fences back.
That young boy Chang gonna be a problem 💯💯
Mark my words.. Brody Brookes is gonna be the next Cody Bellinger
respect for the opposing pitcher pointing out his opponent being hurt.
Makes you wonder, what if the game they had against Ohio, was able to be played the next day to finish the game.

we gonna talk about that moan at 7:51 tho?
sucks when a pair of normal twelves year olds plays fully developed men
And LL does nothing about it - Rigged nonsense
that's why i hope texas beats california
so what should they not take the best kids so it’s fair? stop being soft
@@JJA1987is this jamie j albon?
