Late Charge Gets Yokohama 5-3 Win
Yokohama beat Grand Rapids on the strength of starting pitcher Sotatsu Kobayashi's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 5-3. Samuel Garrison claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. His record stands at 2-1. Picking up the save was former first round draft pick Toru Suzuki.

Jörg Puetz came through with a big-time hit for Yokohama. The center fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 5-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I went out and just tried to do my job," said Kobayashi.

Yokohama is now 18-14.
