Only after 44 hours, I revisted the battlefield for the top position!
Today's game, after the Tigers had captured first place from the Giants yesterday, filling in a maximum of 12 game difference in June, was a must-win game, as they could fall back to second with a loss.
Another seesaw match, exciting enough as the first game of the three-game series I saw on Monday ! I really had to thank my friend who invited me to fill in a seat his companion could not make.
here I was again!
The 10th inning was one of the most exciting innings of all time for me!
After the Tigers scored 2 runs in the top of the 10th, the Giants answered back with Ogasawara's RBI and with two men on first and second, with two outs Kyuji faced Nioka who had hit the game tying two run homer in the 7th... and he struck him out!!
Tigers 1 0 1 1 2 0 2 0 0 2 9
(hits) 3 2 1 1 3 0 3 0 0 3 16
(hits) 3 0 0 0 1 0 2 1 0 2 9
Giants 3 0 0 0 2 0 2 0 0 1 8
Now the Tigers are 1.5 games ahead of the Dragons that is now in second place. They're certainly another dangerous contender in the last stages in the pennant race!
