With a spot in the 2023 Little League World Series on the line, an unlikely walk-off home run was all Pennsylvania needed on Friday to punch its ticket to next week’s tournament.
The aspiring Media, Pa. little league team defeated Washington D.C., 2–0, in the Mid-Atlantic Regional championship to earn a coveted LLWS berth, thanks to a two-run bomb from Trevor Skowronek on the first hit of the game.
After a scoreless 6.5 innings, Skowronek stepped to the plate to deliver the winning homer facing a 0–2 count in the bottom of the seventh, sending the ball flying over the right field wall as the crowd erupted.
