Dynamics Show Moxy in 15-14 Win
Kanda Stadium was rocking after an exciting Dynamics win.

Kenji Ihara was the difference-maker for the Denki Dynamics in what turned into a shootout with the Rakisuta Rams. Ihara, who is tied for 8th in the EL with a .543 slugging percentage, went 5-for-6 in the 15-14 Dynamics win. The win gives Denki a season record of 24-19.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Ihara hit a fastball from Shungo Yasuda for a run-scoring single. The Dynamics, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We kept coming at guys," Denki manager Carl Johnson said. "We kept digging."
