Denki Loss Tarnishes Fine Game by Ishida
The Rakisuta Rams besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Denki shortstop Shigeru Ishida by beating the Dynamics, 9-8, at Kanda Stadium. Ishida slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 6 runs and scored twice. Rakisuta reliever Gunji Matsuda picked up the win, upping his record to 3-2. Tatsunori Tanoue took the loss. The save was credited to Sadatake Suzuki, his 2nd.

The game was at a stalemate until catcher Kuranosuke Imakake came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Denki pitcher Tatsunori Tanoue, he hit a 1-0 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Rakisuta on top, 9-8.

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

Rakisuta is 4th in the Eastern League with a record of 30-32.
