Grandserows Capture Close Win
The Changwon Grandserows eked out a 1-0 win versus the Cheongju Million Stars at Nagano Olympic Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Shigeru Urata. He was terrific. Cheongju, with the loss, is still a robust 13-5.

Norihiro Suzuki delivered a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the ninth to win it for the Grandserows. For the game, Suzuki drew 1 walk in his only trip to the plate.

"The old adage is true," said Urata. "Good pitching stops good hitting."
