Many gathered at local bars and restaurants to watch the game that started at 7 p.m.
"We are so excited. We watched every single game and the fact that this is happening in our small town is the best thing ever," said Debbie Brown from Media.
Media was one of 20 teams who made it to the mound this year.
"We are so proud of the boys and the coaches and everyone involved," said Brown.
Many fans told Action News this tournament is a special moment they will never forget.
Some watched because they played in the town's Little League when they were younger and wanted to cheer on the next generation.
"I played Little League ball when I was little," said Terry Alyanakian from Media. "It's a lot of fun and you can see everyone is joining in."

The team's skills have put them on the map, and residents are hopeful it's enough to bring home the gold.
