Andoh can't hold the lead

This is just open sen - well actually no. Even though its an open sen game its still a Tigers Giants contest. This means that its played with all the passion and commitment the two rivals are able to generate. The game was scoreless until the bottom of the fifth. Here Murton led off with a two base. Hirano hit to left and Murton was home 1-0 Tigers. Unfortunately Andoh could not hold the lead - a two base hit by Takahashi was followed by a home run hit from the annoying Sakamoto 2-1 Giants. This is the way the score stayed as the relief pitchers of both sides ensured that the batters got nowhere. Tigers actually out hit the Giants but they wasted another two base hit from Brazell in the seventh. These need to be converted.
