The Mariners are cool and all, but our baseball fandom is now focused on a few small stars.

In case you missed it, a team from Northeast Seattle representing all of Washington made it to the Little League World Series — the pinnacle tournament for young baseball players ages 10 to 12.

This is the first time in the Seattle league's history that a team has made it this far. Here's all you need to know to cheer 'em on.

Their first World Series game is against New England this Thursday, Aug. 17, at noon. Watch on ESPN.
Team manager Christian Shewey is a dentist who was once drafted by the Mariners.
They've got some pop. In three qualifying games to get to the World Series, Northeast Seattle outscored their opponents 33-1.
If they make it all the way, mark your calendars for Sunday, Aug. 27 for the final game of the Series.
