LLWS is my favorite sporting event of the year. I searched but could not find a thread dedicated to it. It would be great to have game threads like we do for sox games, but I highly doubt that many people are watching 12yr olds play baseball during the day.
ESPN+ has expanded coverage / online streaming this year. If you have DirecTV regional sports package you can also catch many regional games on the Longhorn Network.
The actual world series games from Williamsport run from Aug 16 to Aug 26th. But thanks to the regional games now being streamed or broadcast, I can enjoy watching 3+ weeks of youth baseball.
This seems to be the best game schedule I could find with network & streaming info:

What I am looking forward to most for 2018:
- The change in offense due to new USA Bat regulations. No more cheapy HR's should really change the game.
- The 2nd annual MLB Little League Classic (this year it's Met's vs. Phillies)
I have a 10yr old son who plays Little League and Travel ball, I coach, serve on our local LL board, volunteer, sponsor and donate to various youth baseball organizations. We live in the SF Bay Area, but was born in Wayland, MA. This 3 weeks of LLWS coverage is the least productive time of the year for me.
