Little League World Series 2021 live score, results, highlights from Ohio vs. Michigan championship
A rematch of the Great Lakes Regional final will decide the winner of the Little League World Series.
Ohio and Michigan have fought through the LLWS brackets to reach the final stage, the championship game. It’s a bit different than past years where an American team reaches the final to face an international team, but that will not happen this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
But in the first Little League World Series championship game in two years, there is still plenty of excitement to be had in the matchup. There is a rivalry element between the two states (see: Buckeyes-Wolverines) and the revenge factor as Ohio looks to rebound after it lost the Great Lakes Regional final 9-1.
Sporting News will be providing live updates and inning-by-inning highlights from Ohio vs. Michigan. Follow below for complete results from the Little League World Series Championship.
