Manhattan Beach went undefeated in the West Regional and has advanced to the Little League Junior World Series in Taylor, Mich., after defeating Hawaii’s state champion, 1-0, on Wednesday.

Tommy Bothwell threw six scoreless innings and got relief help from Jackson Michalski. Zack Chan drove in the game’s only run with a two-out single in the first.

The World Series begins on Sunday.
