Rams Take Down Kites, 3-2
The Tokyo Rakisuta Rams had to overcome a fine effort from Kinboshi pitcher Ken Yamada to grab a narrow 3-2 win at Konohana Stadium. Yamada went 9 innings and allowed 3 runs. The win lifted the Tokyo Rakisuta record to 62-43.

Tokyo Rakisuta used the timely hitting of Niito Katagiri to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Rams on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"What we get, we earn," Katagiri told the Tokyo Rakisuta Daily News.
