Matt Thornton, the last lefty in the American pen, is on against the heart of the Japanese order. He strikes out lefty Norichika Aoki on four pitches. Righty-swinging Kenta Kurihara, the new addition to the roster, pinch-hits for lefty DH Atsunori Inaba and also strikes out on four pitches. Lefty Michihiro Ogawawara does the same, taking an embarrassing swing on a 97 mph fastball up and in.
