Earlier today, Warner Robins, GA won the Little League Word Series when Dalton Carriker, 12, hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 8th inning, to cap their come back victory, 3-2, over the heavily favored team from Tokyo, Japan. This marks the third straight year a team from the United States has won the championship.
All of this is great, but I have to tell you, the thing that got me wet in the eyes was Dalton's quote after the game: "I felt like I was flying, like Peter Pan," Carriker said, "I didn't know what I was doing."
Any time a young boy feels like Peter Pan, the world has to be a better place for it.
Congratulations, Warner Robins. Way to go, Dalton. Way to go!
