Yano Slugs Giants to 8-1 Win
The Yomiuri Giants dealt the Hanshin Tigers a 8-1 loss at Ballpark of Otofuke College. Kazuhiko Yano was the star on offense. He was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. At 19-23, Yomiuri is in 4th place in the Central Division.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 2nd and 3rd and two out in the top of the fourth inning. That's when catcher Toshio Takahashi drew a walk. The Giants went on to win.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said Yano. "Those qualities define our team."
