Big, improbable comebacks are becoming the Hanshin Tigers' speciality.
Fumiya Hojo hit a three-run home run to get the Tigers close in the seventh and put them ahead with a two-run triple in the eighth as a spirited rally resulted in an 8-7 win over the Yokohama BayStars in Game 1 of the Central League Climax Series First Stage on Saturday at Yokohama Stadium.
"I'm tired," Hojo said after the game, which took over four hours to complete.
