Between being hit in the face with a pitch and struggling at the plate early this year, it's safe to say Yoshiyuki Kamei's season hasn't been going well.

He wasn't having the best of days on Thursday either, but one swing of the bat took care of that.

Kamei's tiebreaking home run in the eighth inning ended up being the difference for the Yomiuri Giants in a 4-3 win over the Hiroshima Carp at Tokyo Dome.
