All it took was one ball, right were Hayato Sakamoto likes it, for the suddenly surging Yomiuri Giants to get off and running toward another victory.
Sakamoto connected on his first grand slam in six years, Nobutaka Imamura ended a long winless drought and the Kyojin finished off a sweep of the Chunichi Dragons with a 5-3 win on Thursday night at Tokyo Dome.
"I was able to really put my swing on it," Sakamoto said of his homer in the second inning.
