Yamatokoriyama and Kumamoto put this game in the books despite some rain.

Behind the hitting of Kensaku Imamura, the Yamatokoriyama Kingyo stopped the Kumamoto Kuma, 10-2. Imamura went 4-4 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs for the Kingyo. Fukuyoshi Fujioka picked up the win with 7.1 innings of work. He allowed 1 run on 9 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 4-1.

The Kingyo got a big boost from first baseman Masaaki Hashimoto who had a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the first inning off Kuma hurler Tokutomi Sakai. It was his 34th walk of the season and put Yamatokoriyama on top, 1-0.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Hashimoto, "one at-bat at a time."

Yamatokoriyama improves to 51-39 with the win. They lead their division by 3 games.
