This is going to be a football score when it is over. 10-9 and only the top of the 2nd.

Will feel really bad for the team from PA if they lose this after being up 10-2 after the 1st inning. That is something they would be feeling for a while.

Japan leads 13-11 after 4 innings. Nice comeback for them.

[EagleFan]

Still a 2 run game with PA coming up in the bottom of the 5th. May be an interesting finish to this one.

I think it's funny that ESPN doesn't seem to have the score on their site, but direct you to "full coverage" which is basically just watch ESPN.

One inning left. PA down 13-11. One team is going to suffer a defeat that will linger with them a bit (either PA for losing a 10-2 lead or Japan for losing after coming back from a 10-2 hole).

I grew up ten minutes from Red Land, in Camp Hill. They were a big rival for me growing up. It's pretty neat to see them doing this.

Japan increases their lead in the top of the 6th. 14-11 and a runner at 3rd. PA has to bring in someone that hasn't pitched in the LLWS because of usage rules now.

[EagleFan]

Not looking good for PA now, the flood gates have opened. 17-11 and still only one out.

[EagleFan]

18-11, 2 outs in the top of the 6th. Hopefully they can stop the bleeding and end this half of the inning.

Going to the bottom of the 6th. Huge hole to dig out from. They haven't been hitting the off speed stuff this current pitcher has been throwing. Sounded like Japan may bring a different kid in to pitch the last inning (not sure why, with how much success the other kid has been having, he was still about 20 pitches under limit).

[EagleFan]

They kept the other kid in. Probably lights out for PA.

[EagleFan]

Ground out to short, one out.

[EagleFan]

Two outs. Need 7 runs with one out left, not looking good for them.

[EagleFan]

Japan wins. 18-11
