Kingfishers Earn 6-5 Win Versus Reliables
Fans watched the Yokohama Kingfishers and the Hosho Reliables fight to the finish.

Yokohama beat Hosho at Kanagawa Stadium, escaping with a 6-5 win. The win in large part was due to left fielder Shinji Fukuda. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Yokohama pitcher Katsusaburo Yagi earned the win, hiking his record to 2-0. Kinichi Ota suffered the loss.

Yokohama went in front, 6-5, on Sawao Fukuda's 2nd home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Fukuda hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Hosho pitcher Kinichi Ota visibly perturbed.

"My job is to go out and play as hard as I can for the Kingfishers," said Fukuda.

With the win, Yokohama goes to 15-9.
