Reliables Score Late, Upend Owls, 4-3
The Hosho Reliables beat the Kyoto Owls, 4-3, in part because of left fielder Hank Dunham. He went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The win was credited to Motomu Taira in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Kenshin Kon took the loss. Hosho has a mark of 11-3 after the win.

Kiyoemon Hayashida played the role of hero for Hosho. In the bottom of the ninth, he launched a solo home run off Kenshin Kon to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was the decisive blow.

"Hank was ready to go. Big day for him," said Hosho manager Shun Kawamura.
