Tom Hodges was locked in. The right-hander led the Denki Dynamics to a 6-3 win against the Sapporo Bears at Kanda Stadium. Kijuro Fukushima closed the game out for Denki, earning his 7th save. Denki, at 34-70, occupies last place in the Eastern League.

Denki pinch hitter Ken'ichi Matsuda helped the Dynamics go up, 4-3, in the bottom of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Matsuda hit a run-scoring single off Sapporo pitcher Takashi Muraoka.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Hodges.
