( CNN ) -- There will be no more Mo'ne Davis , at least for now . The Sports Illustrated cover girl and her Philadelphia team are out of the Little League World Series after losing an elimination game Thursday night in Williamsport , Pennsylvania , to a squad from Chicago . Mo'ne 's Taney Dragons jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead , but it did n't last . The Jackie Robinson West Little League club went ahead 4-2 in the bottom of the first inning , and added two more runs the next frame . Taney narrowed the score to 6-4 in the fourth inning , then to 6-5 the next . But despite advancing the tying runner to third base in the bottom of the sixth and final inning , the Dragons could n't finish off the comeback . The result means Chicago will face off against Las Vegas at 3:30 p.m . ET Saturday for the U.S. championship . The winner of that game plays for the World Series title on Sunday . It also ends Mo'ne 's high-profile run on youth baseball 's biggest stage . While other girls have played in the World Series , none have gotten the same attention as the South Philadelphia resident and Taney Dragons standout . The 13-year-old became a national sensation after tossing a shutout -- giving up three hits and notching six strikeouts in the process -- to help Taney become one of the final 16 World Series contenders . Mo'ne persistently deflected attention to her teammates -- all of them boys -- even as the media consistently made her the headline . She recalled how she happened into baseball after a coach spotted her tossing a football , how her stellar play caught some off-guard and how she interacts with her teammates . One would expect , then , that this will all die down . Mo'ne is too old to be in another World Series . But that does n't mean we wo n't hear from her again . The Sports Illustrated cover says it straight out : `` Mo'ne -- remember her name ( as if we could ever forget ) . '' The accompanying story says Mo'ne 's first love is basketball and her dream is to play for legendary coach Geno Auriemma 's University of Connecticut team . Elliott Hughes-Taylor does n't doubt Mo'ne can do it , saying she `` completely dominated the Philly league ( despite ) every play matching up with 6-foot-2 , 6-3 boys . '' `` Everyone 's seen her pitch , '' Hughes-Taylor , Mo'ne 's coach in soccer , told SI . `` Well , I promise you , she 's five times better at basketball . '' Meet Mo'ne Davis .
Mo'ne Davis is a star pitcher for a Philadelphia Little League team -- and a girl . The 6-year-old was born with Down syndrome but has been able to play baseball since she was 2 years old. Her team loses 6-5 to Chicago , failing to advance to the U.S. championship game .
