Hirao Hits 2 home runs in Dynamics Win
Riding the 3-hit performance of the slugging first baseman Kinnojo Hirao, the Denki Dynamics stopped the Kyoto Owls, 7-2, in 9 innings. Kyoto, with the loss, is 15-9.

Tom Hodges had a big 2-run home run for the Dynamics in the bottom of the second inning. With Denki trailing 2-1 and a runner on 2nd, he got a fastball from 33-year old right-handed pitcher Herm Brooks and swatted a home run to right. It was his 1st home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Dynamics ahead, 3-2.

"You never take a win for granted in this league," said Hirao.
