The Little League World Series Baseball Field Needs to Be Expanded in Size

August 10, 2025

The current size of the Little League World Series Baseball field, which features a 46-foot pitching distance from home plate, 60-foot bases, and 225-foot fences, is limiting the development of the 12-year-olds who compete every summer for the LLWS Championship as well as many plays that baseball at the Little League level would offer on a larger field. This podcast identifies specific plays and situations that this small field adversely affects or eliminates altogether, to the detriment of the game.
