Reliables Win at Home, 6-2
Hosho Reliables starter Takamichi Smith found his groove in his team's 6-2 win over the Rakisuta Rams. With the win, Hosho raised its record to 34-26.

Yamahiko Hirata had a big 2-run home run for the Reliables in the bottom of the third inning. With Hosho leading 2-1 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from Yamada Yamanaka, who is tied for 5th in the EL with a 7.4 K/9 rate, and punished it. The result was his 9th home run of the season, which put the Reliables on top, 4-1.

"I just trusted my stuff," said Smith.
