BayStars Get One-Run Win at YT
In a tight tilt between the YDNA BayStars and the YT Swallows, Hidefumi Sugahara was the deciding factor. The YDNA right-hander spearheaded the 2-1 win. The winner was Sugahara. He threw 6.2 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was Yasunobu Okugawa. YDNA has now won 3 straight, while the Swallows have lost 3 in a row.

YDNA used the timely hitting of Yukiya Ito to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the BayStars on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Tough loss," said YT manager Hiroyuki Nakajima. "Tough one to swallow."
