Rams Beat Visiting Dynamics, 5-2
The Rakisuta Rams got a rain-soaked win over the Denki Dynamics.

Starting pitcher Yamada Yamanaka had a solid game. He was a big reason the Rakisuta Rams throttled the Denki Dynamics, 5-2. The Dynamics, now 4-11, continue their slow start.

The Rams got a big at-bat from center fielder Toshinori Ito. For the game, Ito went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. In the bottom of the third, with a runner on 3rd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 3rd home run of the season gave Rakisuta a 4-2 lead.

"I was determined to go the distance," said Yamanaka.
