Drillers Nip Mothra, 3-2
The Medicine Hat Drillers faced a tough opponent in Kumamoto pitcher Eduardo Mendoza, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Ibaraki Grounds by a final score of 3-2. Mendoza went 6.2 innings and allowed 1 run. Feng-xiang Xú snagged the win in relief. In 1.2 innings, the right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit. He's now 1-4 on the season. Medicine Hat, at 29-24, occupies second place in the Pacific Alliance Wild Rose.

Medicine Hat used the timely hitting of Dave Woods to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Drillers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Woods called the win "what playing unselfish baseball looks like."
