Tight Tilt Goes to Grandserows, 1-0
The Changwon Grandserows did just enough to sneak past the Gwangju Red Hopes, 1-0, at Fukushima Azuma Baseball Stadium. Changwon pitcher Norimasa Yamaji, in particular, had a standout performance. So far in 2025, Changwon is 26-29.

The Grandserows got a big at-bat from center fielder Takeichi Nagashima. For the game, Nagashima went 1-3 with a home run. In the top of the sixth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 4th home run of the season gave Changwon a 1-0 lead.

"It was a good effort all around," said Yamaji.
