Jotaro Murakami, who finished 2nd in the WL in RBI with 91 in 1955, contributed to the Fukuoka win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 runs batted in.
"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Fukuoka manager Horace Jackson. | |
