Bears Drop Reliables, 5-2
It might have been a rain-shorted game, but the hometown crowd didn't seem to mind.

Sapporo right-hander Seikichi Nagamatsu pitched his team to victory over the Hosho Reliables at Sapporo Stadium. The final score was 5-2. Nagamatsu, who led the EL in saves with 16 in 1958, went the distance for Sapporo. He gave up 2 runs on 4 hits.

Tsuguto Nakamura hit a 2-run double off Niou Nagao in the bottom of the fifth, which put the Bears in front, 4-2. In addition to the double, Nakamura had 1 single, while going 2 for 3.

"Another day, another win. On to the next one," Nakamura told the Sapporo Bulletin.

The setback makes Hosho 20-14.
