Diaz Cruz female umpire today she's been so good around the bases now she gets a chance to call balls and [Applause] Strikes wow to get him on the leg it did that's a hit batter and a walk and a hit batter B just a little high and he wanted it up there in the mound and all of a sudden a first inning Jam good pitch huge strike out of the cleanup hitter and maybe that settles the nerves get that Force out at home on a grounder popped up the catcher he doesn't see it now he does gako oh wow he saw it lad and made a terrific play when you see it off the bat he doesn't you're right watch jaio he can't find it he's pointing and then he finds at last second this ball is now spinning back beautiful Play All Around Jake Romero trying to get out of it and he does with the strike out wow what a turn of Vince in the top of the [Music] first that's laced up the middle and a really good start there for Vince rero after good off speed pitch gripo retired man he moved up in the batting order all the way to three he was down 11 delayed steel sliding in safely is Roo by a base running mistake as they sent a runner this one slapped to First nice job scooping it by Henry and down to third goes rerro Cowboy may be inclined to do popped up Shallow right field worth coming and it's drifting in foul territory and boy what a play Sully Krueger made the wind got it and he kept going with it just wrapping up another great practice here at Alabama this morning but I want to take a second give a special shout out to Nick cortan a former player of mine and manager of the sou Falls Little League team there what an awesome Journey an awesome run through the post season congratulations and I'm looking forward to watching you in Williamsport following your team success there at the Little League World Series have a blast enjoy the moments and good luck scoring opportunities and still zeros are on the board caran hits that first pitch through the right side and dein caran is aboard they've been able to deal with that and they find out he was also deaf completely in his left ear for Clear implant 90 lbs and cger is gone uh it was a lot of pressure I think he was just working too fast there we go and um when he went to the full wind up it settled him down cuz it slowed him down and then head here to Williamsport Pennsylvania anxiously awaiting the arle of both Detroit and New York one pitch one out Chase Kuro 02 pitch swinging a Miss R summer pumping in strikes stands rooting for the team for Pennsylvania they were going nuts ground ball the second when Aaron judge walks in he will be the most visible person that's ever come into the ballark as a major league player the best player development in professional baseball and so I've benefited from that and been able to bring that to the women's side this this coach be this coach up the middle that's fielded by Torres the short stop and good play so it's about giving exposure Cal rking Jr tells a great story of what it was like for his sister who wanted to play basball um Al her and Alex Hugo do the Home Run Derby x uh through MLB Hugo is also a coach with the A's organization ball when they want to play baseball and in their communities aren't being as supportive yeah it's kind of um you know fighting for you want what you want softball field and not be able to hit the underhand pitch the Riser ground ball here at a second this could be two is bitler turns it that scoop beautifully ooh you like that oh was pretty good good pretty good little double play by Bodie and Sully but nothing's actually going up the way rise ball does in softball and so it's the first baseman walked his first time up off speed knocked away that's going to allow the fleet footed Noble to take second base the mound is 46 ft away from home and the next one to Henry and he pulls that fair ball avoids the bag and the race to the bag is won by gripo they will throw to Third and Noble gets back Bas has loaded nobody out in the first and didn't score way behind him Noble comeing here it comes to play at the plate he's in there it's one nothing Sue Falls it's a big pitch three two and a one- nothing game and it is a perfect [Music] one center field going back the wind helped it in a nice r catch by Chase Kuro who the coaching staff says flat out best center fielder in the state of New York that's heck of a statement ra Aaron judge there 11 and 12 in the continuous order they need somebody to get on ground ball fielded nicely ker with a good play at second base easy to get by him oh he missed on the off speed pitch and summer picks up another strike out he's got four of those oh he had a rocket back up the middle it caused Sumer to duck and Vince roero is two for two roero has terrific speed out there at first base 02 and this one is headed towards the Gap it is going to be cut off out there by Corton roero is rounding and coming here's the play safe the ball he claims was dropped rios's out there at second if he's safe it is a 1-1 game we had the wheel play on with umpires Rob rule came down from first he was the one that ultimately made the call at the plate it scoots out of the glove but does he get it back in to tag him I don't know if he ever got it back in and secured it watch it squirt out sitting there on the ground and then because the Umpire is there you tend to lose it with regards to where the foot is and the glove and the ball does his foot ever get to home oh boy I you know what is that the ball there on the ground no that's Jess I have a feeling that ball is in the glove and he kicks the glove yeah that to me looks like it's the glove in the ground and then it it never gets in the glove the call will stand you can see the reaction clutch hit by grippo and here's another one and this could put New York on top they wave grippo here's the throw he's safe Nicholas McAn got moved up to the three spot in the order and backto back key hits for New York Staten Island two sou Falls one how a first pitch attacking too much more aggressive attack second time through the order against grommer Sumer and the fact that he's able to find this Gap exactly the same way we've seen New York be able to test the speed test the arms now back to- back double [Applause] couple extra base [Applause] hits oh he rifles one to deep Center it goes off the base of the wall Here Comes mlan that's a standup double that's another run 31 Staten Island the top four have hammered the baseball we saw it with the first swing before this what I'm impressed with is the identification of the breaking ball not not even being phased barreling it up not just making contact but now four hard hit balls in a [Applause] row Caro sends one in the left they will wave giio here's another play he's in there and Staten nland has exploded here in the bottom of the fourth you see your teammates doing it the confidence just keeps on bat to bat you can tell just first pitch swinging it doesn't matter matter fast ball curveball whatever it is tell you what the Staten Island team we saw in the Regionals that gets away and that's going to move C down to second base he'll take a big turn and stay there so much in the strike zone the hitters will eventually make contact like that the creger is there and that will do it okay I I didn't even ultimately we're New York fans let's put it that way no and that's what Peter said as well he goes I'm a Yankee fan let's be clear caran who's up now is the only one to have hit him off speed slow Roller One play first Bas and they got it they'll throw behind the runner and he's back in time Follow Little League World Series action that one's going to get through and into the middle Wars wies here's that throw Carrow it's way up the line they get their second run and down to Second goes worth in business Sue Falls and you had mentioned there the bats have been really quiet they had a lot of traffic but a lot of that was produced by the pitcher walks hit by batters and to get a big hit with the runner in scoring position there fast call and that's a slow roller Romero will get it he'll turn he'll fire good job by gripo that is a difficult play to come off make the play and keep a foot on the bag short Stop's got a chance to make the play and Torres does it was off the end of the bat for summer and a couple more games still to come this one to right field worth going back it's over his head Romero run Jake run to Second and he will put him on there as it comes back but a lead off double for Jake Romero with a two- count that ball is pulled down the line it is a fair ball it gets by the left fielder ready in comes Romero backto back doubles and the bats remain on fire for Staten Island we've seen some offense but we have yet to see just pass the back extra base hit continuous you expect it from the top of the lineup now we're getting middle to bottom of the lineup and they're still barreling the ball yes we haven't seen it from any team or hard hit and deated it that's bounced up the middle it's through it's going to bring Scar and Jello in here's the throw and it's caught off he is in and how about three consecutive hits to start the fifth inning that's exactly what Sue Falls is thinking right now too even the breaking ball is getting hit find a way to get it through diving shortstop bitler and here it goes to creger to bitler to first in the dirt that one gets by the first baseman [Applause] Henry and this one lifted to left field ready was ready for it and he makes the to throw back in Rocko lays one down with Back Spin it's fielded there is no play he's [Applause] safe will not get a chance to swing it but the bases are loaded on the walk to roero he did and he sends this one high and deep to right going back and making an incredible incredible catch is Sam worth have to come out and he'll require 4 days of rest and it's going to be a ball so he walks the lead off man and that's what South Dakota [Applause] needs wicked fast ball and a strike out of Flores curveball here at onew NOP fast ball and he put him away slow would' be hard to stay off but he challenged him with heat and he paid for it what a job by Noble to send one into right another fast ball and just like that it is 6-3 on his 19th pitch P strike three that's the game Staten Island with a win they survive they advance and they will play tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. [Music] [Applause] [Music] m
