Sad, but true

I just watched the end of the Little League World Series. Hawaii came back from a 3 run deficit in the bottom of the 6th (the last inning in LL games) to tie the game at 6, then win with a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 7th. The amazing part was how much more fundamentally sound they were than our very own Pittsburgh Pirates. How did they come back? Taking pitches, working the opposing pitcher, making plays in the field, running the bases properly. Maybe the Pirates Tivo'd it, they could learn something.
