Little League Final Set

Spring, Texas, is headed to the championship game of the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa.

The team from the Houston suburb beat Yorba Linda, Calif., 3-1 behind the pitching of Michael Cepeda, who threw a two-hitter and struck out 13.

On Saturday, Spring will face Taiwan, which beat the Dominican Republic 1-0 in seven innings.

Players at the Little League World Series have been bolting from the dugout to the bathrooms this week as a flu that apparently started in Saudi Arabia has made its way through the dormitories.

The 112 players share a cafeteria, bathrooms and a swimming pool, so one sick player can quickly infect dozens.
