Southwest Region update
On August 10, Little League International disqualified Tulsa National Little League Baseball from the Southwest Region tournament.

According to the source, court documents obtained by Sports indicate a restraining order affecting the disqualified team. The Southwest Region championship game was then moved up to 3 p.m. ET on August 10.
Sherlon Christie, a Sports senior trending editor who is identified as an expert on Little League Baseball and Little League Softball, is connected to the reporting on the issue.
