Reliables Saddle Kingfishers with 3-2 Loss
The Hosho Reliables did just enough to sneak past the Yokohama Kingfishers, 3-2, at Nagoya Minami Stadium. Hosho pitcher Shinki Kimura, in particular, had a standout performance. Hosho goes to 21-14, Yokohama to 21-13.

Yasunori Smith dealt the Kingfishers a blow in the bottom of the fourth. Batting with the bases loaded and Hosho leading 1-0, Smith hit a 2-1 fastball for a run-scoring single.

"We had the right guys up at the right times," said Yokohama manager Tommy McDonell. "We just didn't cash in."
