The Sapporo Bears eked out a 2-1 win versus the Kyoto Owls at Owls Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Seikichi Nagamatsu. He was terrific. Senichi Soga closed it out for Sapporo, earning his 7th save. The Bears bumped their record to 14-14 with this win.

Kohsuke Takayama, who is tied for 7th in the EL in stolen bases with 2, aided the Sapporo cause with a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth. For the game, the third baseman went 2 for 4 with a double.

"Tough loss," said Kyoto manager Takejiro Yonemura. "But we'll rebound from it."
