The Yomiuri Giants got knocked down.
The Tokyo Yakult Swallows, however, didn't quite knock the Kyojin out.
Kazuma Okamoto hit a game-tying three run homer in the eighth and Yoshiyuki Kamei won it with a pinch-hit sacrifice fly in the 10th inning as Yomiuri surged late for a 10-9 win over the Swallows in extra innings on Friday night at Tokyo Dome.
