It took Kentaro Nishimura a little longer than normal to meet the media after beating the Tokyo Yakult Swallows.
After the longest outing of his career, he can be forgiven for being a little winded.
Nishimura threw his first complete game, Hisayoshi Chono homered and drove in three runs, and the Yomiuri Giants beat the Swallows in a 6-3 contest in front of a crowd of 39,318 on Saturday afternoon at Tokyo Dome.
