A Historic Showdown
The 2026 Little League Baseball World Series will stage its first-ever contest between two unbeaten squads when Latin America takes on Curaçao at Volunteer Stadium in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. ET. The matchup pits the undefeated Latin America team, representing Ministerio Sobre Las Alas Del Aguila LL from Leon, Nicaragua, against Curaçao’s Pariba LL, also riding a perfect record.
Latin America arrives with a 3‑0 slate, having edged Team Caribbean 2‑1, downed Team Panama 6‑4, and defeated Team Mexico 8‑4 in earlier round‑robin play. Curaçao, meanwhile, has also remained flawless at 2‑0, highlighted by a shutout victory over Team Japan and a narrow win against Team Asia‑Pacific despite being outhit.
Both teams have drawn attention for their dominant performances, but the upcoming game marks a first in tournament history: a direct clash between two perfect records. The contest forms part of a full schedule that includes additional games on Thursday before the championship finals on Saturday.
Fans will be able to watch the action live on ESPN, with streaming options available through Fubo TV, though regional restrictions may apply. The broadcast partnership underscores the growing reach of the Little League World Series across the United States.
Beyond the headline matchup, the tournament continues to showcase emerging talent from around the globe, with teams such as Japan and Canada posting strong records of their own. As the week progresses, the stakes will only rise, setting the stage for a memorable championship weekend in Williamsport.
