Hosho Downed, 6-4, by Dynamics
Denki and Hosho duked it out and the Dynamics came out victorious.

The Denki Dynamics weathered an outstanding game by Hosho first baseman Yukio Watanabe to topple the Reliables, 6-4. Watanabe belted 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Tsuneari Nakai was the winner. Over 7 innings, he yielded 4 runs on 8 hits, with 4 walks and 5 strikeouts. Tatsunori Tanoue was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 12 of 15 save opportunities.

Kinnojo Hirao came through with a big-time hit for Denki. The first baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Denki manager Carl Johnson called it "a pretty good win."

Denki is now 32-29, Hosho 39-21.
