Lim Picks Up Third Save

Yakult Swallows closer Lim Chang-yong picked up his third save of the season on Saturday night.

The 32-year-old finished a 3-0 victory with one strikeout in a perfect ninth against the Yokohama BayStars on the road.

Lim, who had 33 saves in his first stint in the Japanese league in 2008, is tied for the lead in saves with Katsuhiro Nagakawa of the Hiroshima Toyo Carp.

The sidearmer has allowed two hits and one walk in five scoreless innings, while striking out three.
