Troika Losers, 4-3, Versus Aoyama Gakuin
Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Aoyama Gakuin Mighty Missionaries got the win.

Starting pitcher Soichiro Shirai pitched well enough to help the Aoyama Gakuin Mighty Missionaries beat the Meiji University Troika, 4-3. Michinaga Noda closed it out for his 5th save.

Luke Dwennon had a big 2-run home run for the Mighty Missionaries in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Aoyama Gakuin leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a slider from 19-year old right-handed pitcher Takuma Sato and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Mighty Missionaries on top, 3-0.

"Let's just say I'm happy we won," said Dwennon. "There are a lot of people in the clubhouse who like to whine too much when we lose."

The last-place Mighty Missionaries sport a record of 12-13.
