Rams Get One-Run Win at Denki
Denki second baseman Mitsuhisa Nakasone had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 5-4, to Rakisuta at Kanda Stadium. Nakasone belted 2 home runs. The win went to Genya Ishii in relief. His record improves to 6-2. Tsunemori Takanezawa took the loss. With the win over Denki, the Rams improved to 32-39.

Tsuguhiro Hashiguchi came through with a big-time hit for Rakisuta. The pinch hitter smacked a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 5-4. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Rakisuta manager Bob Lester praised his team's "businesslike approach."
