Watched the end of the Staten Island NY vs. Illinois game tonight on one of the ESPN channels. The last inning was pretty wild. Staten Island pulled off a double play where the second basemen missed tagging the runner (out of the base path?) and the runner was called out. So the Staten Island kids go to the dugout and the coach congratulates them. He says something like "Come on we only need one run." One of the S.I. kids yells "Yeah one F***ing run!." Then all of the kids say "SHHHHH" because they know that there are microphones in the dugout. ESPN never edited it out on the satellite feed. You have to love those NY'ers
So Staten Island comes up to bat and gets a runner on first with one out. The next batter hits a nice shot into the outfield and the runner on first tries to get to third where he is thrown out. The batter who had advanced to second base thinks that it is the end of the game and starts walking off the field. Illinois tags him out and the game is over!
Felt bad for the Staten Island team. I played Little League on the South Shore of S.I. years ago and it was a great time.
Anyone else have any memorable moments of this years Little League games?
