It took four hours and 11 innings, but the Spreckels Park Little League Majors Division White Sox finally topped the A’s, 14-13, in playoff action Saturday at Brock Elliott. The A’s took leads in three separate extra innings, only to see the lead erased twice and finally overcome in the 11th. Ernesto Pacheco gave the A’s a 13-11 lead with two-run shot in the top half of the 11th, but Leo Soto doubled home Hunter Johnson in the home half to claim the win for the White Sox.
