At Kyocera Dome, Tuffy Rhodes singled in two runs to cap a
three-run ninth-inning rally, giving Orix a walkoff victory over
Lotte.
Rhodes singled to right off Lotte closer Tadahiro Ogino (5-5)
with the bases loaded and two outs after a Tomotaka Sakaguchi
sacrifice fly pulled Orix within a run earlier in the ninth. Kazuo
Yamaguchi (4-2) won in relief.
Keiji Obiki had a pair of RBI singles among his four hits for
Orix, while Daisuke Hayakawa hit a grand slam that put Lotte ahead
7-4 in the fifth. Orix has won three straight and 10 of its last 11.
