Rams Blanked by Sauerwein
Bill Sauerwein was in a mood to talk following the Yokohama Kingfishers contest against the Rakisuta Rams, expounding to BNN reporters on his pitching philosophy. He had good reason to be excitable, having tossed a complete game shutout of the Rams, 3-0.

"There are three important elements in pitching success: location, location, and location," Sauerwein said. "I was hitting my spots time and time again."

The left-hander blanked Rakisuta on a 1-hitter, allowing 1 walk and racking up 7 strikeouts.

This year, Sauerwein has compiled a 3-7 record with a 5.41 ERA.
