Yomiuri Giants rookie Hisayoshi Chono stays low-key no matter how he performs and whether he is in the starting lineup or not. All he cares about is how the team does.
The 25-year-old outfielder gave Yomiuri a big boost in its first game of three-game series against the Chunichi Dragons, who handed the Giants a series sweep a week earlier in Nagoya, going 3-for-4 with two RBIs in a 6-4 win at Tokyo Dome on Tuesday.
Chono drove in a run with a single to left to break a scoreless tie in the fourth inning, during which the Giants would end up notching four runs.
