The game was at a stalemate until right fielder Tetsuya Watanabe came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Osaka pitcher Takatsugu Miyamoto, he hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring double. It was a game-changer, putting Vesutan on top, 2-1.

"For the most part, I made good pitches when I needed to," said Fujii.
