Nomura Swings Rams to 9-8 Win
In the 9-8 Rakisuta win over Yokohama, the impact of Hideharu Nomura was substantial. Nomura, who led the EL in on-base percentage with .461 in 1969, went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Rakisuta reliever Sadato Hayakawa picked up the win, upping his record to 1-2. Yoisuke Nishizawa absorbed the loss. The defeat makes Yokohama 14-26.

In the top of the ninth, Nomura hit a tie-breaking 2-run home run to help the Rams capture the win.

"Both teams had plenty of clutch hits," said Nomura. "It made for an exciting game."
