I'll get flamed for this, but c'mon. It's Little League baseball. Whatever the facts are, everyone involved and observing seems to be taking this *much* too seriously.
Having seen too many parents go ballistic at coaches and seeing kids pressured to satisfy parents' egos, I think the push on team sports in the U.S. should be dialed back a bit. There are way too many leagues, too much organization, too much hype around it, no matter what the sport. This goes for town-organized sports as well as the local soccer/football/baseball/basketball "clubs" that seem to be everywhere.
Whatever happened to a bunch of kids just playing ball and having fun? We used to do that without hordes of screaming parents and it was just fine. Better, in fact.
