Hawaii vs Arizona | LLWS West Regional Elimination Game | 2024 LLWS Highlights

[@MikeF-op4gs]

Reminds me of my little league days from the 70 's! We lost our state final game 16to 14, back and forth and lots of hits, not so many errors!!

[@ScottySundown]

Man I remember playing shortstop in the West Regional way back in 1994 (North Scottsdale LL - representing AZ). It was so fun. We stayed in these cool dorms with the other states and interacted with them on a daily basis. I remember trading “pogs” with the Hawaii team. Such a great experience for these kids!

[@elbolsillo]

That’s way cool. Sounds about my age, born in 1982 and raised in Mesa

[@ScottySundown]

@@elbolsillo Yep. 1982 here too

[@ScottySundown]

@@elbolsillo The crazy thing is that ASU’s football coach Kenny Dillingham’s dad John coached that team. His older brother Kyle played with me

[@richardr5143]

Hawaii got their best pitcher going Friday... trust me he's the reason they will be in Pennsylvania. They are not as dominant for a Hawaii team in the past but that lefty is amazing pitcher.

[@michaelwalsh8339]

Yup,this one of the worse Hawaii teams i seen besides the lefty pichter a beast

[@Icedoutprodz]

@@michaelwalsh8339I know Tavares because I played for west Maui😂

[@michaelwalsh8339]

​@@Icedoutprodzyeah he the best pitcher seen so far easily

[@whlewis9164]

@@michaelwalsh8339check out Feliciano of Florida as well.

[@JohnHernandez-c3x]

Maybe not the best, but this team is pretty dang good are they not?

[@BPTheGoat_11]

I miss the LLWS games from 2011-2016 before they changed the bat rules. Now these kids are swinging bats that weigh nearly as much as them. 2012 LLWS will always be goated.

[@SebLol]

i dont think its the weight of the bats thats affecting them i think the bats are just that much more dead than the old ones

[@Prone2Thrill]

That was a brutal pitching exhibition. Go Hawaii

[@amartinsu13]

Hawaii should make the LLWS but don't think they have enough pitching to go far. One ace can only take you so far.

[@ronrichardson5966]

LITTLE LEAGUE SERIES OF WILD PITCHES AND PASSED BALLS

[@timarb5177]

Boys, when you're less than 10 feet you should flip the ball underhanded firmly and point with your flip hand helping the fielder see the ball quickly.

[@ykzaxh]

YOO THOSE ARE MY FRIENDS FROM SCHOOL

[@BMAC874]

First time seeing kids that look their age

[@Gregheffley1287]

I thought it was just me

[@jetskiordie7976]

Its 100 degrees and AZ is wearing hoodies. Do they have any coaches??

[@MikeF-op4gs]

They are use to it being 115, maybe 120 so around 100 is cool to them!!

[@coachk7674]

its very telling to notice how poorly arizona is coached with regards to there pitchers responsibilities to back up when giving up hits with runners in scoring position....especially when compared to indiana

[@Hihifootball]

I was on this park team and our coach wouldn’t take responsibility on his mistakes, he would take credit when we would do something for team

[@whlewis9164]

Hawaii 3rd baseman is mini Jose Ramirez!

[@noahhaagenson3721]

sloppiest regional game of all time??

[@st0n3ywelifted76]

💯💯 hawaii was throwing sloppy the whole game

[@ca.vulture.2695]

My guy it's LL chill

[@mcg33mcfl33frrrrr]

the most past balls I’ve ever seen in a game

[@bensantellano]

Every highlight was an error! Looks like my nieces 12 & under softball games!!

[@SaucyPanda-zk6yf]

Hawaii is so ass now

[@Kaizen29x]

The pitching is terrible for both teams good lord

[@yesterdaze114]

Litchfield Park? AZ sent the ghetto 😂

[@darklordojeda]

Arizona pitching was awful.

[@davidrobbeloth585]

these arizona kids gotta find a new hobby cause that was sloppy, absolutely disrespecting the state of AZ

[@israelhoffman8074]

Could not agree more

[@bamboo851]

Japan is going to demolish whoever makes it. What happened to the quality of players in the LLWS?

[@jackyaussi5499]

Both catchers are horrible at blocking.. I know they're kids and it's little league.. but when I was that age, I would have been sat on the bench for so many passed balls haha 😅

[@TheMadScientist07]

0:50 this kid looks like mini King of Juco

[@whlewis9164]

He’s mini Jose Ramirez imo.

[@67L48]

Four minutes in and I felt like I was watching my 10U rec ball team throw the ball around the infield. At one point, Hawaii had 9 runs on 3 hits. Sheesh. Nerves of playing on a big stage, I suppose, but what an awful display of baseball in those first couple of innings. 7:02. Third base coaches doing what third base coaches do ... nothing. Just a spectator on the field, doing zippo to help his runner read the play. 9 times out of 10, the third base coach may as well not even be there.

[@tonytoni1150]

I agree, these kids suck 😂 Arizona used to be a powerhouse when I was 12. They’re mediocre as hell these days.

[@brettcomstock1156]

808!

100 degrees in these kids are in black uniforms

[@yesterdaze114]

These kids are bad at baseball, even by children’s standards lol. Bad news bears irl

[@unbebo28]

coaches are not changing their pitchers because, why? i've done coaching before and i just cannot comprehend how in the world coaches continue to let their teams suffer because of poor pitching. do not let the screaming parents and your ego get in the way of COACHING your team to victory.

[@P2_medi]

I can’t watch these games there are way to many errors 😭😭

[@J.RobertPeters]

Why are these coaches allowing these kids to throw junk. First of all they don't know how to throw it effectively. More importantly many of these kids arms will be damaged, permanently. The growth plates aren't mature.

[@coachk7674]

just awful catching by the arizona kid

[@808lublabs4]

Both sides. No blocking at all

[@mrmatches0619]

Aye be easy.... Coaches have been deciding all star teams based on hitting stats of late. Used to be they took ALL stats into account. Idk when I played we had kept track of fielding percentages(used to be a backstop myself). I don't think that's a thing anymore. Also, unless you practice A LOT after all stars are announced, you're catching all new pitchers. Actually had someone break my thumb in Junior all stars cause I didn't really know how his breaking ball was. Plus, the best players are playing travel and Cal Ripken. You wanna see good baseball from kids? Go watch a Cal Ripken game. These are just kids that play for fun. They ain't as serious as the aforementioned leagues these days.

[@coachk7674]

🤣be easy??? ATFKM I caught for 28 years coached from Tball to college and scouted sending players to colleges all over the country Travel ball has destroyed the game Fundamentals aren’t taught and winning at all costs only develops players who will NEVER be recruited Not to mention all of the little league parents who ruin their kids chances The coaching is very obvious when you look at just the pitchers who become spectators after giving up a hit vs those who’ve been taught the 4C’s 😏 PS I’ve caught 98 mph fastballs and nasty 45 mph knuckle balls if You got crossed up and bruised your thumb 😄 that’s on you

[@mrmatches0619]

@@coachk7674 good for you ig??? Not everyone is trying to go pro. Some of us were just having fun... Just cause you're serious, doesn't mean we all were. I was also doing GATE classes during that summer... Not all of the kids are out here trying to die for the cause nor were we like "omj that coach is shit" because at 12 you don't know any better. There's competitive spirit and being a douche. Shitting on kids who literally have almost no input on their situation online makes you sound pathetic. Why are you flexing your coaching acumen? Why aren't you in the MLB?? And I really did break my thumb in 3 places .... Shit was tuff. I was actually very disappointed as my main sport was basketball and I missed my teams AAU tryout and had to rejoin for winter. It's shitty to try to catch people you get one or two bullpen sessions with in a game was my point. Jesus. You must be the life of every party. 🙄

[@AngelesCabrera-ul6nk]

Owen and bradley lost bro🙏🙏

[@MrJking065]

You may notice that Hawaii does not have the 50 stars on its flag. The Union Jack in the top left corner of the Hawaiian flag, Ka Hae Hawaiʻi, honors the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi's historical ties with the British Royal Navy and the pro-British sentiment of its first ruler, King Kamehameha I.

[@NextBatter808]

Why would a state flag have the 50 stars? Lmao

[@norneva775]

One of the worst fundamental Hawaiian teams I’ve seen in a long time.

[@benjaminhankey6623]

Both teams must have run out of pitching

[@ca.vulture.2695]

Its LL Democrats chill on the name calling

[@drewbiet5837]

took all the brain cells to say that one huh

[@marycrow3939]

Too much celebration for a home run. Dug out should come out for a game winner, only. To me, it's unsportsmanlike. Too much celebration. Make sense nowadays because of how the professionals act and in this age of everyone gets a participation award. Celebrate raucously after winning. After all, you can hit all the home runs and still lose a game.

There 12 playing ball on tv having the time of there life

Go ruin someone else's childhood. It's literally a kids' game not the Olympics

[@darklordojeda]

All the people refuting your opinion don't understand what you are saying. I feel like it's setting a bad example and is disrespectful. The TikTok generation is all about clout and to hell with who is hurt in the pursuit of that clout. They say "it's a kids game" yet there are people making hundreds of millions of dollars playing this kids game and the original purpose of little league was to teach kids discipline and respect. It seems to have veered away from those standards in more recent years.

[@marycrow3939]

@@darklordojeda right? I'm happy kids are out there and playing, rather than being in their rooms all day playing video games. Its just I feel our society is loosing dignity and sportsmanship. Look at the fathers in the crowd--they act like children themselves at the smallest good. My generation, you never saw men act like that. They cheered, of course, but in a manly way. It all seems a bit effeminate. But I love watching these games. I love these young men enjoying life. Just something I've noticed.
