| Stars Score Late to Win, 2-1 | In a tight tilt between the Nagasaki Stars and the Osaka Sailors, Shinsaku Shiraishi was the difference-maker. The Nagasaki left-hander excelled in his team's 2-1 win in 10 innings. The 4th-place Stars sport a record of 26-25.
Batting in the bottom of the tenth, 29-year old center fielder Ryunosuke Kodama had a real shot to win the game. Osaka pitcher Haruki Ogawa was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Kodama hit a run-scoring single. The Stars had a walk-off triumph.
"No one can call baseball boring," said Stars manager Okura Ichimura. "Not after a game like that." | |
