LLWS, the team from Greenville, NC has played 2 games.

One guy threw a no-hitter in the LLWS.  Pretty cool, right?

Yeah, the kid 2 days earlier on his team threw a perfect game.

They've played 2 games and haven't been scored on and haven't allowed a runner past 2nd base.

I just heard a crazy Cleveland Indians stat - during their 20-game win streak, they've hit more home runs than their pitching staff has allowed earned runs.
