| Arakawa has 6 RBI in Kingfishers Win | Sukeyasu Arakawa was instrumental in his team's 9-6 triumph over the Rakisuta Rams. The catcher was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 6 for the Yokohama Kingfishers. Hirotsugu Sasaki came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 2.1 innings. His record now stands at 2-0. The win gives Yokohama a record of 5-4.
The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Fujimaro Sonoda came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Rakisuta pitcher Zenichiro Tsuji, he hit a 1-1 curveball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Yokohama on top, 6-5.
"We took home the win," said Sonoda. "What's not to like?"
