A New England baseball team is playing in the World Series this week, and it’s not the Red Sox.
The Little League team from Salem, New Hampshire, is representing New England this week at the Little League World Series.
The New Hampshire team was chosen to represent the area after defeating opponents from Massachusetts, Vermont and Maine in the New England region tournament last week.
The LLWS, which brings together teams of 10-12-year-olds from parts of the country and world, begins Wednesday in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
Here’s what to know about the tournament, and how you can watch the New England team.
