Ghosts Prevail, 5-4, Over Shin Seiki
The Niihama-shi Ghosts and Shin Seiki Evas obliged fans looking for a good time.

The Niihama-shi Ghosts topped the Shin Seiki Evas, 5-4, in Sovereign League action at Oikake Maze. The standout performance belonged to Niihama-shi pitcher and Kure, Japan, native Yuji Yamashita. Noritada Akiyama earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. His record is now 4-2.

Had Alan O'Toole not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, O'Toole hit a 2-run single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Ghosts.

In comments to the Niihama-shi Citizen, O'Toole admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."

Niihama-shi's record now stands at 68-40, placing them first in the Sovereign League Rising Sun.
