Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Zebras
The Nagasaki Zebras had to overcome a good performance from Mito pitcher Jin Fujimoto to claim a 2-1 win at Flying Squirrels Stadium. Fujimoto went 9 innings and allowed 2 runs. The Zebras now have a record of 35-39.

Both teams had trouble scoring runs. So, Kinmochi Nakagawa's at-bat in the top of the ninth was crucial. With one out, the Nagasaki second baseman hit a sacrifice fly, to give his team a 2-1 lead.

Afterward, Zebras manager Arihito Okuda was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
