[Zuckerman] Rob Manfred just revealed the Nationals and Phillies will play in next year’s Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pa. It’s the first time the Nats have been selected for a neutral-site, regular-season game in club history.

Wow, they really hate those kids to spotlight the Nationals at their WS
Second Little League Classic we have played in. The 2018 game was not fun
Why would they have a little league team play the phillies?
I’d rather us get the London series or Field of Dreams game but it doesn’t matter at the end of the day, games still count the same.
Gotta make sure absolutley no one slides down that hill because I fear the injuries it would inflict on the team.
Watching the LL Classic and didn’t realize the Crosscutters weren’t affiliated with us anymore. Researched and found MLB started a six team collegiate draft prep league in the region. I don’t know much about it other than what I briefly read. On the surface it seems like MLB is investing some $ in small towns throughout the regions that are having a bit of a hard time.
