Bears Stymie Rakisuta, Take 9-1 Win
Kinzo Yoshimura pitched a gem to lead Sapporo to victory over the Rakisuta Rams, 9-1. Rakisuta now is 12-6.

The Rams had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Bears going into the bottom of the third inning. That changed quickly when the two-time All-Star Subaru Nishimoto came to the plate. Nishimoto hit a 3-run home run on a 2-0 fastball from Rakisuta hurler Kiyoshige Abe. It was Nishimoto's 2nd home run of the year.

"We were firing on all cylinders," said Bears manager Teruyoshi Endo.
