The Little League Baseball World Series is set to wrap up Sunday with the Championship Game. It’s Hawaii vs. Curacao for the title from Lamade Stadium in Williamsport, Pennsylvania at 3 pm ET. Hawaii, representing the United States’ West region, beat the Southeast region (Tennessee) on Saturday to win the US title. Curacao, from the Caribbean region, took down Chinese-Taipei to win the International Championship Game.
The Little League Baseball World Series is celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2022 and is doing so in a slightly different format and an expanded field of 20 teams. The event kicked off Aug. 17 in Williamsport, Pa. and ice wraps up Sunday.
International teams are participating for the first time since 2019. The 2020 LLWS was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Only US teams were allowed to participate in 2021 when Taylor North Little League from Michigan won the championship. Fans have been welcomed back on the stands this year, as only a limited number of family members were allowed in the stands in 2021 for COVID-19 safety precautions. The MLB Little League Classic was held on Sunday, Aug. 21, with the Orioles defeating the Red Sox.
Chinese Taipei holds the record with 17 Little League World Series titles, and Japan is second with a total of 11. Japan has been dominating lately, as five of those titles have happened since 2010. When it comes to the US, California holds the most tiles with seven.
