6-2 Win for Hosho Over Rakisuta
Starting pitcher Kiyoharu Kawamoto was a major factor in the 6-2 Hosho Reliables triumph over the Rakisuta Rams. Kawamoto, the winner, moves to 2-0. He threw 7.2 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 3 walks. The Reliables raised their record to 5-2.

Yukio Watanabe had a big 3-run home run for the Reliables in the bottom of the second inning. With Hosho leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he sized up a sinker from Kinichi Harada, who finished 2nd in the EL in strikeouts with 184 in 1972, and punished it. The result was his 4th home run of the season, which put the Reliables on top, 4-0.

Said losing manager Kinzo Yoshimura: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."
