Yamaguchi Delivers Walk-Off Win for Reliables
The Hosho Reliables picked up a win at Nagoya Minami Stadium, dropping the Yokohama Kingfishers, 5-3. Eichiro Ueno, who finished 5th in the EL in ERA with 2.78 in 1958, was the difference-maker. Hosho reliever Munehiro Toyama picked up the win, raising his record to 1-2. Katsusaburo Yagi was tagged with the loss. Hosho is in second place in the Eastern League with a record of 65-52.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Hosho. That's when Masaki Yamaguchi hit a 2-run home run off 28-year old right fielder Katsusaburo Yagi to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

Hosho manager Shun Kawamura praised his team's "energy."
