Gigans Win Squeaker, 5-4, Over Lakota
The Sioux Falls Lakota got a superb performance from pitcher Clifton Welsh, but the Niigata Gigans still won the game, 5-4. Welsh threw 5.2 innings allowing 2 runs. With the win, Niigata upped its record to 25-18.

Ichiro Ishida was the walk-off hero for Niigata. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Gigans center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Obviously, we're happy we came out on the winning side, but what a great game to watch, just as a fan of baseball," said Gigans manager Bill Holt.
