This kid looks like a major league hitter - and he's 12! Williamsport will be a fun place for the next week with a local team in the hunt.

Red Land improved to 17-0 this summer and has outscored its opponents 259-13.

When a team such as this dominates its competition to this extreme, one has to wonder about the legality of the team members........

Video link of one of the HR's. Pitcher's reaction is priceless.

Love the LLWS. Red Land looks like a powerhouse. Good thing for them pitchers can’t pitch two games in a row nowadays though. The top pitcher for S. Carolina throws it 80 mph and has a curve and a slider. He threw a no-hitter in the Regional finals then came back and threw another no-hitter in the first game of the LLWS against Rhode Island.

The “kid” (who is about 6 foot tall) has the best “stuff” I have seen at Williamsport in years. Virtually unhittable.

Great to see local kids playing so well. Not one of these kids participating from any of the teams should hang their heads. they all made it very far and should cherish every minute of being some of the very best in the nation. Red Land is a great team and well coached. I wish them luck and hope they take it to final victory!

How insensitive for those little tykes to run the score up on their poor widdle opponents!

They should have called the game earlier and given out the participation trophies.

Sure hope they have all their ducks in a row regarding proper documentation on residency and age. Little League Camps has taken a number of hit in recent years.
