WASHINGTON — From the toniest quarter of the nation’s capital comes an insane but not shocking story of Little League Baseball, high-powered attorneys, accusations of cheating, and apparent stacking of teams.

Northwest Little League, whose territory includes the famed Georgetown neighborhood, was found to have poached players from neighboring localities. The coach who did the poaching was not only stacking his own team within NWLL, critics charged, but he was also trying to stack NWLL’s team in the tournament that could lead to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
