3-2 Kingyo Win Evens Series With Hakuchoh
Behind a bravura effort from starter Cleto Villegas, the Yamatokoriyama Kingyo topped the Niigata Hakuchoh by the score of 3-2 and got their first win in the 1914 Japan Series. Villegas threw 9.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the Kingyo. The win moves Yamatokoriyama into a 1-1 tie with Niigata.

Villegas went the distance for Yamatokoriyama. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 4.

"Hopefully history will remember the 1914 Yamatokoriyama Kingyo as a group of guys who played their hardest and had each other's backs," Villegas told reporters.

The next game is set to be played for Friday, August 28th , 1914 at Hakuchoh Park in Niigata.
