How to watch the Staten Island team in the Little League World Series on Thursday (8/15/24)

After South Shore watched four opening games at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania on Wednesday, it’s time to get in on the action!

Manager Bob Laterza’s club, the Metro Region champion, opens the tournament on Thursday (August 15, 2024) at 3:00 p.m. ET against Mountain Region champion Nevada.

If you’re not one of the lucky fans who are in Williamsport, you can watch the game on ESPN. If you don’t have cable, you can watch it on fuboTV, which is aimed at sports fans.

South Shore enters today with a 17-2 record and will put top pitcher Stephen Grippo, a left-hander, on the mound. The Island team will most likely face Nevada’s top hitter Wyatt Erickson, who pitched a no-hitter with 10 strikeouts in the regional championship game.

South Shore has won District 24, Section 3 South, NYS and Metro Regional to get this far. It is trying to become the second Island team to ever win the World Series. Mid-Island did it 60 years ago in 1964. Laterza’s group is the seventh Island team to reach the World Series.
