Stars Best Bulls in Pitching Duel | In a low-scoring contest between the Nagasaki Stars and the Kobe Bulls, 24-year old right-handed pitcher Roku Yamakawa proved to be the difference. The Nagasaki right-hander earned props for his performance in the 1-0 Stars win. Yamakawa, now 5-7, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 2, walking 1, and allowing no runs. Masato Yamamoto earned his 15th save in 23 chances.
Ienari Fujimori had a direct impact on the outcome. Fujimori contributed a solo home run in the top of the third inning to put Nagasaki up, 1-0.
"The effort we put into this one paid off," Yamakawa said.
The victory gives the Stars a record of 59-48. | |
