I know nobody cares about it, but it is my hometown now, so good for them. They won the New England Regional Final beating Andover, Mass 13-7, that is after beating Farfield, CT 8-7 in the semifinals. A bunch of kids live in the neighborhood, and are all good kids, no punks.
The team can hit the ball, they mash baseballs top to bottom...they don't have the greatest pitching which is a deathnail in the LLWS, especially when you play those teams that have a kid or 2 who throws in the 90's at the MLB scale.
Anywho first game is Friday the 19th at 3pm, against Hunington Beach, CA....

Or just a good baseball game. But obviously with a US team winning of course.

yeah any US team is nice, but I have a little extra on this seeing I know some of the kids...actually Baldelli's old man coachs part time...
A few years ago when Cranston, RI (my original hometown) went all the way to the Finals and lost was freaking nuts... -
Good luck to your hometown team, Finyank...I love watching the LLWS, and it's great to see that the covering networks (ABC and ESPN where I live) actually make somewhat of a big deal out of it (not more, not less than it deserves) and bring some of their top broadcasters (Brent Musberger, for one) to cover it...makes the kids feel good, and gives us all a good game to watch.

Feel bad for the kids (presume they are all of age) in Uganda, Africa. Would have been cool to see them play and represent that continent for the first time ever. Red tape!
