Kingfishers Outmuscle Kyoto, 11-9
Good production from third baseman Fujimaro Sonoda helped the Yokohama Kingfishers topple the Kyoto Owls, 11-9. Sonoda went 2-5 with a triple, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4 for the Kingfishers. Kinzo Yoshimura, who went 6 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 4 runs on 9 hits, while walking 4 and striking out 2. His record now stands at 1-1. Earning his 2nd save for Yokohama was Katsusaburo Yagi.

With Yokohama leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Sonoda hit a fastball from Toshimasa Kobayashi for a bases-clearing triple. It was his 1st triple of the season and put the Kingfishers ahead, 4-0.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Sonoda, "one at-bat at a time."

The Owls fall to 5-7 and continue their lackluster start in 1962.
