(STATE COLLEGE, PA) - State College Spikes fans joined the world in watching as the team from Keystone Little League made a magical run at the 2011 Little League World Series. Wednesday, the Spikes will welcome the players and coaches from that Keystone squad to Medlar Field at Lubrano Park for their 7:05 p.m. game against the Batavia Muckdogs (St. Louis Cardinals).

The Keystone team, representing Clinton County, PA, will be honored on the field in a special pre-game ceremony. Keystone players and coaches will also be part of the in-game entertainment, allowing them the chance to enjoy the family fun of a Spikes game as well.

Keystone fought its way through District and Sectional play before winning the Pennsylvania Little League championship at the State Tournament in State College in July.
