Nobody was more fired up than the fans at Little League Classic

The MLB’s annual Little League Classic held Sunday featured some of the game’s brightest stars. But it was the young fans who arguably took center stage.

The New York Yankees took on the Detroit Tigers for the seventh iteration of the MLB event at Bowman Field in Williamsport, Pa.

To say that the Little Leaguers in attendance were hyped to see some of their favorite players would be a massive understatement.

The yelling and shrieking would probably be annoying to some. But for the kids, the whole ordeal likely felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience that fully warranted the commotion.

Even just seeing Juan Soto’s famous “Soto Shuffle” in person had a few Little Leaguers looking like they had just witnessed a home run.

Yankees All-Star Jazz Chisholm Jr., who is currently on the injured list, also made sure to get up close and personal with some of the youngsters.

The baseball that was actually played on Sunday wasn’t too shabby either.

The Yankees carried a 1-0 lead into the bottom of the 9th inning. With two outs and a man on second, Tigers infielder Jace Jung hit a game-tying RBI single to left field.
