Nothing little about field preparations for Little League Classic

We are just a day away from the Phillies and the Mets in the second Little League Classic, played this year in Williamsport, PA. Williamsport is a logical venue choice considering the small Pennsylvania city hosts the Little League World Series each year. It also makes sense for the Phils to take the field as the home team for the matchup considering the Williamsport Crosscutters are the Class A Short Season Affiliate of the Phillies.

This type of event doesn’t simply “happen.” Preparing the field for a nationally televised prime-time contest takes more than a few cans of paint for the MLB logo.
