Denki Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
Hosho got a terrific performance from pitcher Fumimaro Yamauchi, but it wasn't enough to beat the Denki Dynamics. Denki won the Kanda Stadium contest, 4-3. Yamauchi threw 7.2 innings of 3-hit ball for the losing team. The third-place Dynamics improved to 24-23.

Mitsuzuka Matsumoto was the walk-off hero for Denki. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Dynamics center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place was jumping at the end," Matsumoto said.
