Yoshiyuki Kamei has one heck of a flair for the dramatic.

Kamei led off the bottom of the 10th inning with a "sayonara" home run to the deepest part of the stadium to help the Yomiuri Giants edge the Tokyo Yakult Swallows 2-1 in front of 44,076 fans on Saturday afternoon at Tokyo Dome.

"I wasn't able to drive in any runs earlier in the game, so I'm happy I could make up for it with the sayonara home run," Kamei said.
