Similar Stories to Tokyo Wins Little League Title In 18-11 Comeback Victory on Bing News

(SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.) — With more than 42,000 fans cheering against them, the Tokyo players found themselves down eight runs in the first inning of the Little League championship game against Lewisberry, Pennsylvania. That brought out manager Junji Hidaka’s inner Yogi Berra and sparked a record rally that saw the Kitasua Little League pound out 22 hits in an 18-11 comeback victory in a battle of undefeated teams. “I told the players it doesn’t end until it ends,” Hidaka said through a translator. Tokyo responded with seven runs in the second, four in the third inning and five in the sixth. Masafuji Nishijima had four hits and six RBIs, and Shingo Tomita hit two of Tokyo’s five home runs. Tokyo’s third pitcher, Nobuyuki Kawashima, held Lewisberry in check most of the game, giving up just one run and two hits over five innings. “Today my fastball wasn’t going fast enough,” said the 12-year-old, who lived for four years in California, and speaks fluent English.
