Kingfishers Beaten, 4-2, by Bears
Sapporo Bears starter Chiko Abe found his groove in his team's 4-2 win over the Yokohama Kingfishers. Abe, now 3-1, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. The 5th-place Bears are now 16-29, the Kingfishers 16-29.

It could have been a different outcome for Sapporo, had it not been for Masao Shiotani, the 41-year old first baseman . Shiotani contributed a run-scoring double in the top of the second inning to put Sapporo up, 2-0.

"I made good pitches, kept the ball out of the middle of the plate for the most part," said Abe.
