Down to Defeat Go Bears, 6-2
The Rakisuta Rams handed the Sapporo Bears a loss at Rakisuta Stadium. The final score was 6-2. Hideharu Nomura made the highlight reel for Rakisuta. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 1 run and drove in 3. He also added 2 bases on balls. The Rams, with only their 3rd win in 14 games, have not had much to write home about in 1974.

With Rakisuta leading 3-0 in the bottom of the second, Nomura hit a fastball from Yamada Yamanaka for a 3-run home run. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Rams ahead, 6-0.

"Nice to get this one," said Nomura. "Wins have been hard to come by."
