Yokohama Kingfishers starter Shigeyasu Hirayama pitched a strong game against the Rakisuta Rams at Rakisuta Stadium, leading the Kingfishers to victory, 4-3. With the victory, the Kingfishers upped their record to 48-33.

Fujimaro Sonoda came through with a big-time hit for Yokohama. The third baseman smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 4-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We did enough to win," said Hirayama.
