Newson gets a strikeout in four pitches, but Teraj Alexander sprints in from third to steal home. Replay shows that Newson turned his back to home plate, and Alexander pounced on the opportunity to run home.It’s now 5-4 Florida, what a wild comeback here in the fifth inning.Teraj Alexander takes three balls before firing a double into the outfield. Bibaud scores, Calo just barely gets in safe at third after a slip, and Alexander was dancing on second base.However, the game has stopped for a scary moment. Christopher Chikodroff’s hit goes right back at Mogford, hitting him in the knee. Florida gets a runner in to make it 4-4, but the bigger concern is Mogford’s health. The crowd is silent as the trainers and both coaches attend to the Texas pitcher.Julian Hurst walks Luis Calo, and Texas coach Jonathan Collins makes the call for a pitching change. Collins gives his starting pitcher a hug before shuffling things up, with Doc Mogford coming from center field to take over on the mound.It’s 4-2 with runners on the corners, and Texas is in a jam. With one out, Mogford has a tricky task ahead of him to keep Florida from turning this into a serious comeback.Liam Morrisey can’t get aboard himself, but he gets a sacrifice RBI to make it 4-2. Mieses scores, and Bibaud is on third base with one out. Hurst has 15 pitches left before he hits the 85-pitch maximum, and has given a thumbs-up to the dugout.DeMarcos Mieses is just inches from a home run with a long hit to center field. The Florida slugger is in with a stand-up double, and Julian Hurst appears to be telling the Texas coaches that he’s having shoulder trouble.The next pitch sees Jacob Bibaud get a single, moving Mieses over to third. Hurst is staying in, but this could be a critical moment in this game.As expected, JJ Feliciano is no longer pitching, with Landon Bono taking over on the mound. Feliciano is now Florida’s shortstop.Bono’s first inning of work was pretty impressive overall: three outs on eight pitches, with two long fly balls caught by outfielders after a groundout.Christopher Chikodroff got aboard to end Hurst’s run of total dominance, and Florida made it count. JJ Feliciano’s single to center field brought Chikodroff in to make it 4-1, and Florida’s batters suddenly seem to have some confidence.Still, Hurst showed he can throw some heat, striking out Garrett Rohozen for a second out. It looked like Hurst would add to his strikeout total against Landon Bono, but the ball briefly escaped catcher Caden Guffey. However, Guffey recovered really well, spinning to throw Bono out at first to end the inning.With two runners aboard, Doc Mogford smacks the ball to left field, where Jacob Bibaud’s dive comes up inches short. What could have been an inning-ending out instead became a two-RBI double, allowing Texas to take a 4-0 lead.JJ Feliciano gets his seventh strikeout to end the third inning, but having thrown 84 pitches, that might be it for him on the mound. The Little League World Series has an 85-pitch limit before a pitching change is enforced.If Florida’s going to mount a comeback, they’ll have to solve Texas pitcher Julian Hirst, who looks unhittable at the moment. The third inning was three up, three down, with Hurst piling up the strikeouts.Texas got the bases loaded in the bottom of the second, and made it count. With Kaleb Christ looking to bunt, pitcher JJ Feliciano’s pitch got away from him, going past catcher Landon Bono. That brought a run in, giving Texas the game’s first run.Christ stayed at the plate, and batted another run in with a grounder to first. While Florida eventually finished the inning off with a Feleciano strikeout, they’re in a two-run hole.Texas’ Julian Hurst was pretty darn efficient in the second, getting a couple of immediate groundballs to kickstart things, followed by a 1-2-3 punchout. And with that, Texas is back up after just five pitches.James Feliciano delivered a couple of passed balls and saw Texas get runners on second and third. The Florida pitcher settled into a groove and finished the first inning with a couple of strikeouts. No score after one.Julian Hurst fielded a comebacker to get the double play. A quick pop-out by Garrett Rohozen later and Texas is up and it’s Florida’s turn to take the field. No score after the first half-inning.Next up is the U.S. Championship: Texas vs. Florida, which will broadcast on ABC at 3:30 p.m.Behind a remarkable start from Lai Cheng Xi, Chinese Taipei is heading to the Little League World Series Championship and will play the winner of this afternoon’s game between Texas and Florida.With 12 strikeouts, Lai Cheng Xi never let Venezuela get a rhythm offensively.

A walk and double now have Venezuela on second and third with Chiu Wei-Che pitching.Venezuela’s Luis Yepez covered serious ground to run down a foul ball for the inning’s best highlight. Now it’s time for Venezuela to either mount a serious comeback or it will be Chinese Taipei headed to the LLWS Championship Game.Venezuela did enjoy a single from Jhonson Freitez. But that was it as Lai Cheng Xi got another strikeout and gave his team the defensive cushion it needs heading into the final inning of play. Chinese Taipei 4, Venzuela 0Venezuela players collide in center on a popup from Chiu Wei-Che. With two outs, centerfielder Samuel Carrasquel failed to come up with the play after colliding with Venezuela’s shortstop. Chen Bo-Wei scored on the play.Venezuela now has just six outs to eat into this 4-0 deficit.In the third, it was more of the same. Lai Cheng-Xi adds to his totals on the day, notching his tenth strikeout on the day. He now has a one-hitter through four complete innings. Chinese Taipei will be up to start the fifth with the lead, 3-0Chinese Taipei added another run to the scoreboard after a walk brought in the runner on third and loaded the bases.

Borelli reminds us that the players entertaining so many this weekend are children and offers some insight on not just remembering that fact but also making the tournament’s presentation more in line with the athletes’ ages.”We love the Little League World Series, but there are subtle ways to make it even better. Here’s how we can reduce the pressure on kids who play in it and open up opportunities for more of them to have a shot at it,” Borelli writes.The Little League World Series is divided into two brackets: the United States bracket and the international bracket. Each bracket will conduct its own individual tournament, and the winner from each bracket will face off in the championship.The U.S. and international brackets are double-elimination brackets. This means that a team can still advance in a separate elimination bracket even after losing its first game. The winner of the elimination bracket then plays against the winner of the winners’ bracket in the U.S. or international final for the opportunity to compete in the LLWS championship.In other words, a team must be defeated twice to be eliminated from the tournament.Great Lakes – Hinsdale Little League – Hinsdale, IllinoisMetro – South Shore Little League – Staten Island, New YorkMid-Atlantic – Council Rock Newtown Little League – Newtown, PennsylvaniaMidwest – Sioux Falls Little League – Sioux Falls, South DakotaMountain – Paseo Verde Little League – Henderson, NevadaNew England – Salem Little League – Salem, New HampshireNorthwest – South Hill Little League – Puyallup, WashingtonSoutheast – Lake Mary Little League – Lake Mary, FloridaSouthwest – Boerne Little League – Boerne, TexasWest – Central East Maui Little League – Wailuku, HawaiiThe 2024 International Regional ChampionsAsia-Pacific – Kuei-Shan Little League – Taoyuan City, Chinese TaipeiAustralia – Hills Little League – Sydney, New South WalesCanada – Whalley Little League – Surrey, British ColumbiaCaribbean – Aruba Center Little League – Santa Cruz, ArubaCuba – Santa Clara Little League – Villa Clara, CubaEurope-Africa – South Czech Republic Little League – Brno, Czech RepublicJapan – Johoku Little League – Tokyo, JapanLatin America – Cardenales Little League – Barquisimeto, VenezuelaMexico – Matamoros Little League – Tamaulipas, MexicoPuerto Rico – Radames Lopez Little League – Guayama, Puerto RicoPast Little League World Series resultsIn recent years, teams from the United States have been very successful in the Little League World Series, winning the last five championships since 2017.
