SAN ANTONIO – The McAllister Park Little League team is trying to become the second team from San Antonio to make it to the U.S. Championship game at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Penn.
Their manager and the team has put in the work. Now, it is just a matter of making it pay off.
"We're not really worried about who we are playing," said Jack Wideman, the team's manager. "If we play our game, we're going to be OK."
He said his team has really been relaxed throughout the whole tournament.
"The kids here, all 16 teams, interact," Wideman said. "They interact. They hang out. They play ping pong. All these kids just love being here."
While his kids are enjoying the experience in Williamsport, the fans in San Antonio are enjoying cheering for their team.
"To see them on the field -- the excitement -- they look so serious and they look like professional baseball players and the uniforms are clicking and then you see them in the dugouts and they're doing their little dances," said Paul Weir, owner of the Longhorn Café on Blanco Road, about the thrill of watching the teams play.
Weir's café hosts a viewing party on game night.
He said he is not only happy to welcome all the fans and help out the team but he donates 10 percent of the tickets of fans who are at the café to cheer on the team to help the players and coaches pay the bills.
"I hear reports from San Antonio how everybody is going crazy and loving it," Wideman said.
