| Kingfishers Mow Down Dynamics, 11-2 | Yokohama starter Bill Sauerwein kept the Denki offense in check, while his team rolled to a win, 11-2. Sauerwein got the win, improving to 4-11. He gave up 7 hits and walked 1 over 8 innings. He allowed 2 runs. Denki has now lost 4 in a row.
Yokohama used a clutch at-bat from Kunisada Kimura to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Kingfishers ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.
"We're a talented bunch when we're playing well," said Kimura. "I think we showed that here." | |
