Choho Take Down Sky Horses, 2-1
Extra innings were needed to determine a winner at New Koshien Stadium.

In a low-scoring affair between the Tokyo Choho and the Pyongyang Sky Horses, pitcher Rômulo Escalante was the difference between victory and defeat. The Tokyo right-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 2-1 Choho win. Tokyo reliever Alexandre Peltier picked up the win, raising his record to 6-2. Lopahin Darminov was tagged with the loss.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 13th inning, when Tokyo shortstop Nils Liszt, facing Lopahin Darminov, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Choho the 2-1 win.

Said Escalante: "It's just one win, but it feels like more when you outlast a tough opponent."

The victory gives the Choho a record of 77-56.
