I have to agree with some of the other comments. An outs format home run derby is always better. I understand that it takes longer and maybe they didn’t have the time but it’s unfortunate when the pitching isn’t as consistent to one batter as another. It looked like that Noah kid was gonna roll through the championship.
Single elimination is a poor way to go when one kid moves ahead with 6 or 8 and another goes home with 9. And it's obvious in the boys' finale what happens when the pitcher gets tired and inconsistent. How about a timed machine in the future, to make things fair?
Why did the boys have such a short fence? Also, why weren't any of the heavy hitters from this year's LLWS in the derby? Like the Thornton kid from Michigan for example.
The home run derby is set up by a corporation (T-Mobile), rather than LL Inc. I think in major cities they run contests, and what we see are the semi-finalists that were whittled down from all contenders. They stage it on TV in Williamsport to cash in on the LLWS, which isn't a bad thing in itself, but you're right -- some of the LLer's in the LLWS should easily be in the derby, too.
That last kid got cheated. That pitcher was flawless and quick with every delivery for the other kid, but through a bunch of balls and took forever to get some pitches off
For real he completely screwed Punjabi in the final, half his pitches to him were outside. Clearly got tired by the end they should have had a replacement.
It is completely silly, especially with metal bats, the league I run is all wood, all ages. Hate the sound of tin and how kids think they are so much better than they are with that huge sweet spot.
When are they going to stop churching this tournament up. Everyone knows the kids with the big talent aren’t wasting their time playing little league ball. They’re busy playing travel ball.

Majestic blast to center about 145 feet

Even jaren lancaster didnt make it to semi finals he by far the bestblittle leaugue player this year
But this was last year. Lancaster was hitting this good as an 11 year old? Why was he not on the 2021 Hawaii team?
It’s unfortunate when the pitching isn’t consistent from one batter to the next 😪
100% agreed only got like 6 pitches to hit
The last pitcher was so bad

170? 9 years olds kid hit that far. back it up to 250

You should get extra points for the boys hitting it over the big boy fence
Burn why are the fences 130 and 170 pop ups are home runs 😭
The boys fence is actually 225. Idk abt the girls tho. But those announcers where trash anyways.
@@del0ryan88 the pink fence is not 225

For softball its basically hit it out the infield lol😂😂
Cameron Throning that played for Michigan at the LLWS this year would of killed all those baseball players

Imagine being a broadcaster for this lmao
The kids should be in their away uniforms. It would show team pride and look more interesting that way.

Looks like the kids had fun. Hitting homers with metal bats is pretty easy on tiny fields, lol
Justice for Noah Kirby
best name ever
That last kid got cheated. That pitcher was flawless and quick with every delivery for the other kid, but through a bunch of balls and took forever to get some pitches off
Why didn't they have the boys and girls in the same competition?
I'd watch/listen to Jessica Mendoza on any baseball or softball program .
Not a fan of female broadcasters for male sports. She is put there because ESPN is trying to force wokeness on everyone.
@@derkardinal9781 Completely agree. Can't stand listening to them.

Bruh this is so shameless with tiny field
Pitcher is horrible for the boys!!!
For real he completely screwed Punjabi in the final, half his pitches to him were outside. Clearly got tired by the end they should have had a replacement.
Where the real players like Weir and the kid from Michigan
They were playing at this time!! They were still in the Little League World Series
Y’all seriously moved the wall up for them??? What about all that equality garbage????
It’s a softball lol
shouldn't be times. pitchers are horrible. better to get X number of outs.
The girls derby pitcher was 1000% better than the boys. Why couldn’t they get someone under 85 years of age to pitch?
The girls barely hitting it out with good bats and a 120 fence what the fuck man
Something about the shorter pink fence tarnishes the moment for the boys' home run derby. Also, they should not be doing this on Sunday.
Damn how juiced r these bats
Probably juiced bats and juiced balls
Omg pitch the ball!!
Bro those are basically wiffle ball fields the girls are using
8 Year old kids play on these fence lengths...this is pathetic and stupid!!!
For real when I was ten I played on 260
You didn’t make this derby did you??????
It is completely silly, especially with metal bats, the league I run is all wood, all ages. Hate the sound of tin and how kids think they are so much better than they are with that huge sweet spot.
I have seen some of these kids hit the ball 270 with wood at a wood bay tourney
What kind of legit. 12-year-old has a mustache?
Puerto Rico
It’s possible. I had kids in my middle school have a full beard lol
Carlos from the Benchwarmers. He's got documentation
Mostly the man child kids
Pitching isn’t good
They wanted this kid to win..... they pitched to the left outside, low to the Indian kid
Neither of the different respected players of each sport had to follow through🤣🤡
Petra hunt has the most hideous swing ive ever seen
Dear Whiners: life isn’t fair.
wait 130 ft for women and 170 ft boys? they should be equal according to leftist.
Wtf is this pitching smh
not little league.... softball....
Awful editing
When are they going to stop churching this tournament up. Everyone knows the kids with the big talent aren’t wasting their time playing little league ball. They’re busy playing travel ball.
its cause its a huge challenge to win it. let alone even get there. you need to win 4 tournaments in a row and some of them are single elimination.
What's with the recent trend of using female sports broadcasters for male sports? Not a fan of that.
