The boys from Lake Mary, Florida walked it off against Chinese Taipei in extra innings to win the Little League World Series, 2-1, in thrilling fashion on Sunday night. 

A Florida team was 0-8 in LLWS title games all-time, but Lake Mary had been fighting tooth and nail throughout this series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, facing four elimination games just to reach the final against the squad from Taoyuan, Taiwan – a squad that didn't lose any of the five games they've played since hitting the States. 

After Lathan Norton finished his 3.2 innings with a scare, as Taoyuan's Hu Yen-Chun flew out to the warning track in the top of the eighth inning, he went to second base to begin the bottom of the eighth in a 1-1 game.

The last hitter in Lake Mary's lineup, Hunter Alexander, came up in a clear bunt scenario, where he was only thinking about moving Norton over to third base. 

But Taoyuan, perhaps the team with the best fundamentals in the tournament, didn't have someone covering first base when Alexander laid down his bunt to the right side. 

The ball was thrown away, and Lake Mary celebrated immediately as Norton came around third base for the winning run.
