Ryunosuke Higuchi did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the HNH Fighters from being beaten, 9-6, to the YDNA BayStars at Yokohama Stadium. Higuchi went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4. Taiga Kamichatani earned the win for YDNA. He lasted 6 innings, allowing 1 run on 8 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 3-3. After today's action, YDNA sits at 23-30, while HNH falls to 29-25.

One pivotal at-bat came with one out in the top of the fifth. With runners on 1st and 2nd and HNH trailing 4-1, Taiga Kamichatani needed to bear down against Yuki Nomura. Kamichatani won the battle, as Nomura lined out and the BayStars went on to win.
