Yokohama Pockets 4-1 Win Over Sapporo
Kiyoji Nakamura brought his A-game to help Yokohama defeat the Sapporo Bears, 4-1. Nakamura, now 4-1, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 4, walking 5, and allowing 1 run. Taishi Yoshimura earned save number 4 this season.

Thoki Kaneshige, who finished 4th in the EL in RBI with 71 in 1970, had a direct impact on the outcome. Kaneshige contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put Yokohama up, 4-1.

"Kiyoji had good arm action, good stuff," said Yokohama manager Johnny Ruby.

The slumping Bears have lost 8 straight.
