Bears Suffer 6-2 Loss to Dynamics | Denki right-hander Yoshimatsu Shiina pitched his team to victory over the Sapporo Bears at Kanda Stadium. The final score was 6-2. Shiina picked up the win for Denki, going 7.2 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 3-1. Denki, with the win, climbs to 8-17.
The Bears had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Dynamics going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the three-time All-Star Ritsuki Iwasa came to the plate. Iwasa hit a bases-clearing double on a 2-0 fastball from Sapporo hurler Sumiteru Yoshida. It was Iwasa's 6th double of the year.
"I'm just trying to make sure I'm focused for each and every pitch," said Shiina. | |
