While ESPN was broadcasting the Little League World Series this past weekend, Mayor Rahm Emanuel was attending Chicago’s citywide youth softball and baseball tournament, the first such tournament to be held in decades.
On Saturday, Chicago Park District Superintendent Michael Kelly, representatives from the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox, and Aldermen Patrick Daley Thompson (11th) and Danny Solis (25th) joined Emanuel at the tournament, which took place at the University of Illinois-Chicago.
