Omar Vizquel hit a two-run "sayonara" homer in the bottom of the ninth inning Saturday as the visiting major league all-stars held off the Japanese squad 7-5 in Game Two of their eight-game exhibition series.
Cleveland infielder Vizquel, who had replaced Montreal's Jose Vidro at shortstop, lined the first pitch from Orix BlueWave closer Masahide Kobayashi into the Tokyo Dome's right-field stands in his first at-bat of the game.
Coming off an 8-5 victory in Friday's series opener, the major leaguers went ahead in the second inning on an RBI single by Sandy Alomar off Seibu Lions right-hander Takashi Ishii.
