Twelve innings wasn't enough to decide a winner on Thursday night as the Hanshin Tigers and Orix Buffaloes closed out interleague play with the 3-3 tie.

It was the only tie in interleague play.

Stefen Romero put Orix on the board in the top of the second inning at Koshien Stadium with a solo shot to left center against Hanshin rookie Kosuke Baba in his NPB debut. The right-hander fanned five and scattered five hits over six innings.
