Representing the West Region in the Little League World Series, the Honolulu team won a pitcher’s duel over Southeast Region representative Peachtree City American (Ga.) 2-0 in the last game played tonight in Williamsport, Pa.

Hawaii starting pitcher Aukai Kea lined a two-run homer to left with one out in the 11th inning just six minutes before a mandated curfew that would have brought both teams back to play at 5 a.m. Hawaii time Saturday. The game tied the longest game inning-wise in LLWS history. Reliever Sean Yamaguchi got the win. Ben Traxler was tagged with the loss.

The win puts Honolulu into the winners bracket of this double-elimination event. The local kids will play Grosse Pointe, Mich., which beat Coeur D’Alene, Idaho 5-4, Sunday at 8 a.m. Hawaii time. Georgia will face Idaho at 2 p.m. Saturday, with the loser going home.
