Yamanaka Lifts Rams to Win | Yamada Yamanaka never let Denki get something going. The Rakisuta right-hander commanded his fastball in pitching the Rams to a 4-1 win. Rakisuta has won 3 straight, while Denki has lost 3 in a row.
Yamanaka, the starting pitcher for Rakisuta, like a boss, imposed his will. The right-hander, who is tied for 3rd in the EL in complete games with 6, racked up 9 Ks, while allowing just 3 hits. Opposing hitters had trouble making good contact.
"We have a lot of confidence in Yamada," said Rakisuta manager Bob Lester. | |
