The Yomiuri Giants overturned a five-run deficit against a nemesis to beat the Chunichi Dragons 9-5, complete a three-game sweep Sunday.
Before 45,700 at Tokyo Dome, Shuichi Murata broke a 5-5 tie in the fifth by taking a high fastball away over the right-field wall for an opposite field homer, to give a one-run Giants lead against rookie Shunta Wakamatsu (7-3), who beat them both times they had faced him.
Tomoya Inzen, a career minor leaguer batting for the first time this season, tied the game against the right-hander with a two-run, pinch-hit single that capped Yomiuri's five-run third inning.
