The Hamilton 12-year-old all-star team stayed alive by beating Torrance, Calif, 4-2 on Thursday night and will play Sioux Falls, S.D., 12:30 p.m. Saturday in Williamsport, Pa.
On Wednesday, the Ohio State Buckeyes football team shared a video on Twitter of a number of players — Javontae Jean-Baptiste, Zach Harrison, Sevyn Banks, Master Teague III and Nicholas Petit-Frere — wishing West Side luck.
The Cincinnati Reds released a similar video with Kyle Farmer and Amir Garrett talking about West Side.
Miami RedHawks baseball coach Danny Hayden sent his best wishes via a Twitter video as well.
Here’s a look at those videos and more social media reaction:
