Smith Delivers Walk-Off Win for Sailors
Osaka first baseman Kikuichi Shirai had a 3-RBI performance, which helped his team down the Vesutan Bees, 8-7. Yataroh Niwa picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 1-3. Haruki Ogawa suffered the loss. The last-place Sailors own a record of 10-19.

Ginnosuke Smith was the walk-off hero for Osaka. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Sailors shortstop hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said Shirai.
