Kim Tae Kyun's 10th-inning drive didn't go deep enough to get out of the park or even past center fielder Hisayoshi Chono.
With a runner on third, however, it went just far enough to give his team a win.
Kim hit a sacrifice fly in the extra frame and reliever Yasuhiko Yabuta finished things off in the bottom of the inning to give the Chiba Lotte Marines a 2-1 victory over the Yomiuri Giants on Tuesday at Tokyo Dome.
