Reliables Chop Down Dynamics, 7-1 | Hosho and Denki got after it at Kanda Stadium.
Denki had no answer for Hosho Reliables hurler Kinichi Ota, who overwhelmed Dynamics hitters as the Reliables coasted to victory, 7-1. With the win, Hosho upped its record to 55-45.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Yasunori Smith? The Hosho third baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Reliables on top, 3-0. For the game, Smith had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.
"Kinichi really held it together well," said Hosho manager Shun Kawamura. | |
