Episode Details

Phenix City, Alabama is headed to the Little League World Series after a dominant four-nothing shutout of Tennessee, powered by 15-year-old phenom Kinley Rasmus — whose dad Cory and uncle Colby both played in MLB — pitching a complete game, striking out eight, while also hitting second and playing shortstop. The team’s coaching staff includes her dad as assistant and her uncle Case as head coach, with cousin Ryker also on the roster. It’s a family dynasty making history — the last time Phenix City made it to the LLWS was 1999, when Kinley’s dad and uncle were teammates under their grandfather’s guidance. Alabama kicks off their World Series run August 19th.
