In the bottom of the seventh, Kyoto pinch hitter Gesshin Yokoyama had a productive at-bat. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and one out, Yokoyama stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 5-4, Kyoto. For the game, he was 1-1.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Kyoto manager Takejiro Yonemura. "It's usually not just one thing."
