Tetsuya Iida and Ken Suzuki both belted three-run homers Wednesday to lead the Yakult Swallows to a 19-11 victory over the Yomiuri Giants.
Iida connected off Yomiuri reliever Hiroya Tani in the second inning and Suzuki followed with his seventh homer of the season in the third as the Swallows jumped out to an early 6-1 lead at Tokyo Dome.
Takayuki Saito got the Giants back in the game with a grand slam in the bottom of the third but Ryuji Miyade came back with another three-run homer in the top of the fourth.
