SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — The biggest cheerleader for the Waipio team at the Little League World Series might be in the Philadelphia Phillies' clubhouse.

Hawaii native and Phillies outfielder, Shane Victorino, has become a huge fan of the squad that will play in the U.S. finals Saturday.

Teammate Ryan Howard says Little League games are on the Phillies' clubhouse television all the time.

Howard, who visited the World Series earlier this week, says Victorino gets excited and won't be quiet when the Hawaii team in on TV.

Waipio is trying to become the second team from Hawaii since 2005 to win the oldest and most prestigious youth baseball title.
