Gou Kawamoto, who finished 3rd in the WL in on-base percentage with .376 in 1954, contributed to the Rakisuta win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the right fielder had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 3 runs scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"Give them credit," said Hosho manager Shun Kawamura. "They wrecked us."
