The team from Warner Robins, GA, won the Little League World Series title Sunday.
From the AP via 11Alive.com:
Dalton Carriker couldn’t feel his legs as he rounded the bases.
His home run in the bottom of the eighth had just given Warner Robins, Ga., a thrilling 3-2 victory over Tokyo to win the Little League World Series title. “I felt like I was flying, like Peter Pan,” Carriker said. “I didn’t know what I was doing. “Adrenaline took over from there, said the 12-year-old slugger with braces.
His dramatic home run over the right-field wall off a 2-1 pitch from Japan’s Junsho Kiuchi gave the United States three straight Little League championships.
“USA! USA!” cried the Georgia-partisan crowd as dozens of fans waved American flags. Columbus, Ga., won the crown last year, and Ewa Beach, Hawaii, in 2005.
Congratulations guys!
Dalton Carriker, Warner Robins, Little League
