Swallows Score Late to Upend Golden Eagles, 4-1
The rain did not keep YT and TR from finishing their game.

The YT Swallows picked up a win at Kleenex Stadium Miyagi, taking down the TR Golden Eagles, 4-1. Starting pitcher Joichiro Maki was a big reason why. The winner in relief was Yuichiro Okano. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.1 innings. He now owns a record of 2-1.

YT needed the clutch hitting of Yoshihiro Akahane to seal the deal. The designated hitter swatted a 3-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Swallows on top, 4-1. For the game, Akahane had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Winning never gets dull," said Akahane.

YT bumps their record to 30-35 with the win.
