Kazuhiro Kiyohara and Hideki Matsui both homered Sunday as the Yomiuri Giants juggernaut swamped the Hiroshima Carp 7-3 for a sweep of the weekend series in Hiroshima. The Yomiuri victory kept the Giants on top of the Central League standings, seven games in front of the Chunichi Dragons.
Cho Sung Min (1-2), making his first start for the Giants this season, gave up three runs on six hits over five-plus innings to pick up the win. He also sparked a four-run outburst in the fourth with an RBI double.
