1982 Kirkland, Wash. 6, Taiwan 0

Kirkland's Cody Webster throws a two-hitter and smacks a 280-foot homer to end Taiwan's 31-game World Series winning streak.

1993 Long Beach, Calif. 3, David Chariqui, Panama 2

Pinch hitter Jeremy Hess hits a bases-loaded, two-out single in the last inning as Long Beach becomes the only U.S. team to win back-to-back titles.

Mission Viejo pitcher Gavin Fabian enters the final inning with a 4-1 lead and a no-hitter, but Guadalupe rallies for four runs to pull out a victory.
