| Stars Prevail, 2-1, Over Kobe | Nagasaki starter Johnny Travis put the Kobe offense in a vise grip. The right-hander relied heavily on his sinker in leading the Stars to a 2-1 win. Togai Ota closed out the game, earning his 1st save. The Stars, now 4-1, have stormed out of the gates.
Nagasaki took advantage of an error in the bottom of the seventh inning. The game was tied, 1-1, when Yoritomo Toyota hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Stars in front, 2-1.
"I was talking to myself on the mound, saying 'attack, attack, attack, stay convicted, no matter what,'" said Travis. | |
