BOSTON -- The Cardinals' Sunday stop in Williamsport, Pa., where they'll visit the Little League World Series Complex before facing the Pirates in a nationally televised game from nearby Bowman Field, will be a return visit for outfielder Randal Grichuk, who, along with pitcher Lance Lynn, appeared in the LLWS on his way to the Major Leagues.
Grichuk was a member of the Lamar National League Little League team from Richmond, Texas, that advanced to the LLWS in 2003 and '04.
"I'm excited," Grichuk said of returning. "I have always wanted to go back, but obviously we [usually] can't because we're still in season.
