The Little League World Series is going to look a little different this year than it did when teams last met in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, in 2019.
For the first time since 1975, the field will consist only of U.S. teams as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Still, this will be a welcome chance for the best teams in the United States to prove their mettle on the national stage. The best teams from across the nation will compete to try and be the first Little League team crowned champioin since 2019, when the Eastbank Little League team from River Ridge, Louisiana, won it all.
Here’s the latest updates and scores from the 2021 Little League World Series.
