Reliables Land Close Win
Nagoya Minami Stadium did not lack for drama.

The Hosho Reliables got a stellar effort from pitcher Fumimaro Yamauchi, helping Hosho score a win over the visiting Yokohama Kingfishers, 3-2, in 11 innings. The win moves Hosho to a record of 13-5.

Hosho got a game-changing hit from Yukio Watanabe. The first baseman blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"This place was rockin'," Yamauchi said.
