Toshihiko Kuramoto doubled home the game-ending run in the bottom of the ninth inning as the Yokohama BayStars came from behind to edge the Chunichi Dragons 3-2 on Wednesday.
BayStars starter Joe Wieland did not figure in the decision but held the Dragons to two runs on five hits and two walks over seven innings, striking out nine in his 100-pitch effort at a rainy Yokohama Stadium.
Chunichi scored first, with Nobumasa Fukuda hitting a two-run home run in the second.
