Taiwan is headed to the Little League World Series championship game. Taiwan took advantage of six errors by Reynosa, Mexico and scratched out runs on a bunt single and a bases-loaded walk for a 9-4 victory Saturday to take the international title. Up next, a matchup Sunday with Chula Vista, Calif., or San Antonio, Texas, for the tournament crown. Taiwan is back in the title game for the first time since 1996, when it beat Cranston, R.I. A mix of Mexico miscues and six-hit pitching by the 12-year-old Sung lifted Taiwan in a game delayed twice by rain. Mexico waited out the delays in the dugout by reminiscing about their fun times in Pennsylvania. Some Taiwan players spent the time practicing their swings or snacking on their customary chocolates. Sung mimicked his pitching motion to stay loose.
