The Grand Rapids Rafters defeated the Yokohama Plumbers, 7-5, at Grand Rapids Grounds. Leading the charge for Grand Rapids was designated hitter Vincente Espinosa. He was 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. Grand Rapids pitcher Ramón Vásquez got the win. He's now 14-3. Toru Suzuki was tagged with the loss. Orlando López, who is tied for 6th in the RML in saves with 17, nailed down the save.

Espinosa made an early impact for Grand Rapids when he stroked his 8th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which came in the bottom of the third, put the Rafters on top, 4-0.

"Don't let his youth fool you," said Rafters manager Alberto Flores. "Vincente knows what he's doing out there."
