Rakisuta Sunk by Yokohama, 4-3
Rakisuta Stadium was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Yokohama Kingfishers and Rakisuta Rams.

Yokohama starter Tadaatsu Sunada pitched well against the Rakisuta Rams at Rakisuta Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. Toshinori Osada nailed down his 2nd save.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Fujimaro Sonoda? The Yokohama third baseman had a bases-clearing double in the top of the first inning to put the Kingfishers on top, 3-0. For the game, Sonoda had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Sonoda. "You've got to get results."

Rakisuta, with the loss, is 7-8.
