Dynamics Win at Hosho, 9-7
Fans were not deterred by the threat of rain. They came to see their hometown Hosho Reliables take on the Denki Dynamics.

Behind a fine performance from Kinnojo Hirao, the Denki Dynamics knocked off the Hosho Reliables, 9-7. Hirao was 3 for 6 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2 for the Dynamics. Yoshimatsu Shiina went 6.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 7 hits. The right-hander, who finished 4th in the EL in wins with 13 last year, struck out 5 and walked 2. With the win, he's now 5-5 this season.

With Denki leading 1-0 in the top of the first, Hirao hit a run-scoring single off Hosho hurler Shirai Takahashi. It was the 99th hit of the season for Hirao and put his team ahead, 2-0.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Hirao told the Denki Bulletin.

Denki, with the win, is 26-52.
