Sorry to say, they got blown out. I really feel for those kids.  They stopped the game, because of the mercy rule. Those Japanese kids are hard to beat. They take their baseball seriously in Japan. They have been playing baseball in Japan for over a 100 years.   USA USA

The best baseball in town...................Nothing but heart.  The sportsmanship is amazing. 

Let's try to remember that the US had some pretty big kids as well, one was 6 foot 2 inches and nobody made comments about him that related to his birthdate or certificate

They say Japan's regional is a harder tournament than the Little League World Series Tournament.  You have to tip your hats to all teams......Especially the team from Uganda.

Can't say anything about a 12 year old player being 6ft. myself. When I was 12 and played lettle leage, my dad kept a copy of my birth certficate with him while traveling from all star game to all star game, I was 5'11 3/4" tall and my weight was 160 when I was 12. Some kids are just big and tall. My wife teaches 8th grade. She teaches kids every year that are 13-14 that are 6'4" and once in a while she will have one that is 6'5". She don't have alot of kids this tall but every year she will have 1 or 2. Some years she will have several.

Watched most of the games that was on tv and enjoyed them.  I do hate TN lost, but that is part of life. I think they have alot to be proud of. Maybe next year a team from the USA will win it.

Remember the U.S. has several regional teams in the tournament. The team from Japan is a national team composed of the best players in their nation! That is a major edge for a foreign team.
