The Giants got a big at-bat from designated hitter Ikumasa Kuwahara. For the game, Kuwahara was 1-2 with 2 walks. He drove in 2 runs. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a 2-run single. His 16th hit of the season gave Yomiuri a 5-3 lead.

"I tried to mix it up, keep them off balance," said Benjamin.
