The Yomiuri Giants looked a bit sluggish in the first game of their series against the Chunichi Dragons.
Turns out all they needed was a gut check.
Michihiro "Guts" Ogasawara hit a two-run homer in his first at-bat and a grand slam in his second as the Yomiuri Giants routed the Chunichi Dragons 11-2 in Game 2 of the second stage of the Central League Climax Series in front of 43,536 fans on Thursday at Tokyo Dome.
