Eastern League Defeats Western League, 6-5
Hideharu Nomura cemented his status as one of the best in the game with his performance tonight.

"It's an honor to even be invited to the game. To be rewarded as the MVP of the game is extra special," the Eastern League star said after his great showing. "Just playing on the same diamond as some of these guys is a pure treat."

In the game itself, Hideharu Nomura certainly wasn't the only great player out there, but he did enough in the Eastern League's 6-5 win over the Western League All-Stars.
