MANILA, Philippines — Emerging baseball power Lawa-an, Eastern Samar pulled off a stunning 3-1 victory against Agoncillo, Batangas and advanced to the championship match in the Little League Philippine Series (Junior division) at the Kamagsangkay Culture and Sports Complex in Pambujan, Northern Samar.

Lawa-an will play Tanauan in the do-or-tie titular match.
