Arai, Brazell bats propel Tigers into 1st place

July 27 (Nishinomiya)-- Takahiro Arai delivered a sixth-inning tiebreaking single and Craig Brazell homered twice as the Hanshin Tigers beat the Yokohama BayStars 5-2 on Tuesday to move into sole possession of first place for the first time since May 2.

Jason Standridge (7-1) tossed one-run ball over seven innings in an 11-strikeout effort for the Central League frontrunner, kicking off the second half of the season following the All-Star break.

Arai's single made it 2-1 and Kenji Johjima added a two-run single in the sixth at Koshien Stadium. Stephen Randolph (2-9) took the loss for Yokohama, which dropped its fourth game in a row.

Brazell had solo shots in the fourth and eighth, respectively, matching Yomiuri Giants slugger Alex Ramirez with his CL-leading 32nd homer of the season. (Kyodo)
