Reliables Curb Bears, 4-3
The Hosho Reliables and Sapporo Bears played an exciting game.

The Hosho Reliables did just enough to sneak past the Sapporo Bears, 4-3, at Sapporo Stadium. Hosho pitcher Shirai Takahashi, in particular, had a standout performance. The win went to Yoshii Mizuno in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Takashi Muraoka took the loss.

Zeshin Abe came through with a big-time hit for Hosho. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Sapporo skipper Earl Higgins, "and it cost us."

The win takes Hosho to 6-4.
