BetOnline is one of the few websites taking bets on this year's Little League World Series, including from California. They are even offering bracket betting, the only site we know to be doing so.
California will be represented in this year's LLWS.
El Segundo Little League went 3-0 in the West Region Tournament to secure its spot in the LLBWS. With one win against Hawaii and two wins over Northern California, including one in the championship, El Segundo Little League marks the 53rd World Series appearance by a team form the state of California.
El Segundo was facing off against Ohio and will be the big -450 favorite.
"Every bar in the city, when we play, every bar is putting our game on TV," said El Segundo Little League Manager Danny Boehle. "It's just super incredible. In a town that's 17,000, which is another thing that's unheard of. Most of these towns that had these teams come from 80,000, 100,000 kids they get to choose from ... We don't."
"I never would have dreamed we made it here," said Louis Lapp, a pitcher and first and third baseman. "I would have hoped. I thought we would have been really good, but wow, 20 teams in the whole world and we're one of them? Pretty cool."
