ONLINE — WVIA, northeastern and central PA’s PBS and NPR affiliate, will livestream the 2023 Little League World Series Challenger Division exhibition game on Saturday, August 26, at 10:30 a.m.

The division is a Little League program for children with special needs, introduced as part of the Little League Baseball World Series in 2001, and quickly became a fan favorite.

The exhibition game is a chance for these players to experience the excitement of the Little League World Series and to show the world what they can do.

“We are excited to once again live stream the Little League World Series Challenger Division Exhibition Game,” said Ben Payavis, WVIA’s chief content officer. “This is a special event that gives children with physical and intellectual challenges the opportunity to participate in the Little League World Series experience. It has become something we have looked forward to every year. We hope that viewers will tune in to watch these amazing athletes compete.”

The game will be streamed live on WVIA’s website, wvia.org, on the WVIA PBS app and is available on ESPN+.
