The Central Maui Little League All-Stars take center stage in the West Regionals.
And, we're delighted to report, ESPN 550 will be airing all of Central Maui's games live from San Bernardino, Calif.
The live coverage will begin with Friday's 1 p.m. showdown against Glendale, Arizona.
That will be followed by games at 5 p.m. Sunday against Southern California, at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday against Utah and 9:30 a.m. Wednesday against Northern California.
The top four of the six teams will qualify for next Friday's semifinals with the championship game set for Sunday, Aug. 16, at 2 p.m.
At the big-league level, both of Maui's players currently in the majors had productive performances yesterday.
Kurt Suzuki hit a solo homer in the first inning, giving Gio Gonzalez all the support he needed, as Oakland blanked Texas 6-0. It was Suzuki's seventh homer of the season.
Philadelphia center fielder Shane Victorino returned to the starting lineup after missing several starts because of a bruised knee.
Victorino responded by collecting a pair of hits in four at-bats, raising his season average to .316. He also threw out a runner out at second base, but the Phillies suffered an 8-3 home loss to Colorado.
