Columbus, Ga., wins Little League title

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Columbus, Ga., won the Little League World Series on Monday, beating Kawaguchi City, Japan, 2-1, in the rain-postponed final.

More from Fox News:

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.  â€” Cody Walker hit a two-run homer off ace Go Matsumoto, Ryan Carter struck out 11, and Columbus, Ga., beat Kawaguchi City, Japan, 2-1 to win the Little League World Series championship game on Monday.

It was the second straight American victory in the Series, coming on the heels of Ewa Beach, Hawaii’s win over a team from Willemstad, Curacao last year. The United States hadn’t captured back-to-back Little League titles with different teams since 1982-83 when Kirkland, Wash., and Marietta, Ga., celebrated in Williamsport.
