Sato Stars for Reliables in 9-5 Win
The rain did not keep Hosho and Sapporo from finishing their game.

Chikato Sato was a vital contributor to the 9-5 Hosho victory over Sapporo. The Reliables second baseman went 4-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Hosho goes to 31-17. The win puts them 3 games up in their division.

Yamahiko Hirata, who is tied for 7th in the EL with a .455 slugging percentage, contributed to the Hosho win with a grand slam home run in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the shortstop had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 RBI.

"Just trying to keep things simple and helping the team win any way I can," Sato told a local reporter after the game.
