Welcome to another edition of ESPN Fan Central, where we answer your ESPN questions.
As ESPN’s extensive coverage of the 71st Little League World Series from Williamsport Pa., begins today on ESPN, we wanted to take the opportunity to look back at an amazing fan-submitted youth baseball highlight that eventually appeared on SportsCenter.
The video features a youngster’s leap over the catcher to score a run. A Twitter user submitted the video of the play using both #SCTop10 and #FCMailbag – for Front Row’s Fan Central Mailbag – hashtags. The kid’s heroics earned the No. 1 status on “Plays of the Week” for June 18, as the video took its place among standout highlights from across the sports spectrum (see both the tweet and SportsCenter videos below).
