Jonah Bayliss threw a bases-loaded wild pitch, allowing Satoshi Nakajima to score the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning in the Nippon Ham Fighters' 7-6 win over the Seibu Lions on Sunday.
With two outs and a 0-2 count against Yoshio Itoi, Bayliss threw the ball into the dirt that ricocheted off catcher Toru Hosokawa at Sapporo Dome. The Pacific League-leading Fighters won their fourth in a row and for the seventh time in eight games.
Atsunori Inaba hit a tying three-run homer with one out in the bottom of the ninth. Naoki Miyanishi (6-0) pitched a scoreless 10th and Chikara Onodera (2-5) was charged with the loss for Seibu, which dropped its fourth in a row.
