Baseball Umpire Messes Up Big Time in Little League Regional Game
A recent match at the Little League World Series got people talking for a surprising reason. During the game between Virginia and South Carolina, something unexpected happened with one of the umpires that caught everyone’s attention.
As the exciting game was winding down between Virginia and South Carolina, there was a notable error at home plate. It was near the end of the fifth inning, with only two outs left. The umpire who was keeping track of the pitches got a bit confused. Even though the batter had swung the bat twice, the umpire announced that the count was 1-1.
This mix-up led to a pretty interesting turn of events. The batter from South Carolina, who had seemed to strike out, suddenly got another chance to bat. And he made the most of it.
In a surprising move, South Carolina took advantage of this unexpected opportunity and scored three runs with a home run. This changed the score to 7-6 in their favor, which left a lot of people amazed and maybe a bit confused.
Luckily, someone caught this unusual situation on camera because the game was being shown on ESPN+. Here’s the video in case you missed it:
