There was never a dull moment in an extra-length game between the Nagasaki Stars and the Kobe Bulls.

The Nagasaki Stars faced a tough opponent in Kobe pitcher Tatsuharu Oto, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium by a final score of 1-0 in 10 innings. Oto went 8 innings and allowed no runs. With the win, Nagasaki lifts its record to 10-5.

Nagasaki got a clutch hit from Satoru Yamaguchi. The catcher launched a solo home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"It wasn't easy, but we got it done," said Yamaguchi.
