[@the_roflcakes]

Thank you for making these edits so enjoyable to watch. Always including the extras and not flying through plays. Makes you feel like you actually got to watch the game. Great work Wheels!

[@janyperez2079]

Cuba 🇨🇺 💪🙏❤️

[@DaisyGonzalez-l7x]

Felicidades a todos los padres de estos niños cubanos son un ejemplo a seguir

[@eqthomas6994]

I don’t use this word a lot but This was a Fantastic game to watch ( all the games are Fantastic )

[@joeheid2776]

Cmon everybody!!!!!! Let's get Wheels to 440K!!!! Sub up! Congrats Cuba on your 1st win!!! More to come?

[@sportgeek2028]

Cuba was hitting today

[@recoilrob324]

It looked like the pitcher was throwing batting practice in the home run derby.

[@jordannietos]

1st pitcher was doing alright, but the rest just had no velocity whatsoever

[@supergio4551]

Cuba vs Panama will be nice 🔥

[@Ideku8]

4:48 I like he calls time just to stay on the bag lol

[@avlifeguard92]

Did he stay though? Usually it's the player that runs to their coach to handover gloves, guards etc.

[@johnny_rocketts7089]

Lmao that 3rd baseman

[@mousekin]

What? 1st win for Cuba. Wow.

[@ireymyr9481]

2nd Game,1St win (First Game a narrow lost 1-0 Against Japan)

[@tylerjerabek5204]

They had not been allowed to travel to the US, not sure where they were allowed to travel to a regional!

[@brianmeen2158]

@@ireymyr9481it would be interesting to see if they reshuffled the bracket - which teams would end up in the championship. Positioning in the bracket is huge because if you get paired with top teams right off the bat you have to use your ace pitcher . No team can afford to go to the losers bracket right off the bat

[@ireymyr9481]

Indeed,that's a factor for sure@@brianmeen2158

[@kathleenwood9856]

I like the coach forget who he is, will not let his boys show boat! My son now 53 and a coach is the same way. A way to show respect to the other TEAM & COACHES… I ADMIRE THAT…

[@cceynar94]

They dont have bases that have metal in the ground to keep them stationary? Odd

[@rossspyke2362]

Safety feature required by LL.

[@RosmeryRomero-ye7bi]

Los eso es un picheo

[@DelbertStinkfester]

If the broadcasters just ate food the entire time it would make the games much more enjoyable

[@lachlansinclair2854]

Angel Hernandez behind the dish

[@puckerings]

You know the Little League strike zone is different than the major league strike zone, right?

[@benwilson6559]

I don’t understand the ump discretion with passed balls on third strikes.. Seems like there’s been zero consistency

[@sntslilhlpr6601]

It's the rule that's inconsistent, not the umps. Dropped 3rd strike only applies if first base is open OR there are two outs. Kind of a dumb rule if you ask me, especially for this level of play.

[@goosevt]

@@sntslilhlpr6601 The reason it's only when there are two outs or first base is open is that it's a force play. Strike three is a live ball - if the catcher catches it he just caught a live ball so the runner's out. If it touches the ground he's got to throw (or tag) the batter out. Runners are forced just like any other live ball. If there were bases loaded, for example, and less than two outs the catcher could intentionally drop the ball, pick it up, touch home and throw to first for a double play. No such shenanigans if there's already two outs.

[@puckerings]

@@sntslilhlpr6601 The rule makes perfect sense if you understand where it comes from. The only reason you can't go if first base is occupied (with less than two outs) is to prevent defences from getting unfair double plays.

[@mogar1353]

Blocker

[@deseansmith3391]

Why does Cuba do that?

[@deseansmith3391]

With the curveball?

[@drivebyquipper]

Umps or no umps, Australia will never beat Cuba. It's their national game and birth certificates are rare.

[@drivebyquipper]

Most Cubans are delivered by cab drivers in old Chevies.

[@jacksonframe8303]

We will one day. The olympics, 2017 wbc and this years wbc were all close games

[@kathleenwood9856]

NEVER SAY NEVER!

[@xavseq727]

Someone said this was the best Aussie team ever at LLWS!

[@tylerjerabek5204]

2016 team beat Curaçao (and Italy)

[@brianmeen2158]

Does Australia have a big interest for little league? America used to but in the past 9-10 years it has lost a lot of steam as most of the elite players don’t play little league - they are all about travel ball
