6-3 Win Gets Tokyo Rakisuta to 43-31
Tokyo Rakisuta and Yokohama took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

Tokyo Rakisuta picked up a win at Kanagawa Stadium, toppling the Yokohama Kingfishers, 6-3. Pitcher Jougo Suzuki was one of the reasons the Rams triumphed. With the victory, the Rams upped their record to 43-31.

Hisatoshi Fujisawa, the 27-year old catcher , had a direct impact on the outcome. Fujisawa contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fifth inning to put Tokyo Rakisuta up, 4-0.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Fujisawa.
