Michiki Ichikawa was vital to the Nagasaki win. He went 1 for 3 with a walk. In the bottom of the third with one out, Ichikawa hit a run-scoring single. It made the score 1-0, in favor of the Stars.

"There's a lot in this game you can't control. Just take what the game gives you. I was just doing my best to help the team win," Ichikawa told the Nagasaki Herald.
