Roberto Petagine hit a pair of solo homers and drove in three runs and Atsunori Inaba connected for a three-run blast Wednesday to power the Yakult Swallows 14-8 over the Yomiuri Giants at the Tokyo Dome.
Yomiuri took a 4-0 early lead when Hideki Matsui drilled a two-run homer, his 10th roundtripper of the season, off Yakult starter Hirotsugu Maeda in the bottom of the third inning.
But in the top of the fourth, Petagine homered for a run and Inaba nailed a game-tying three-run shot off Darrel May (3-2).
