Sapporo Dealt 6-3 Defeat
The Hosho Reliables picked up a win at Nagoya Minami Stadium, knocking off the Sapporo Bears, 6-3. Starting pitcher Shinki Kimura played a key role in the triumph. Kimura got the win, improving to 8-3. He gave up 5 hits and walked 6 over 6.2 innings. He allowed 1 run. The victory gives Hosho a record of 30-24.

Ukon Kikuchi had a big 2-run home run for the Reliables in the bottom of the first inning. With Hosho leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a cutter from Arata Komatsu, who is tied for 10th in the EL with a 1.33 WHIP, and punished it. The result was his 8th home run of the season, which put the Reliables on top, 3-0.

"Shinki gets on the mound and he competes and that's what you want," said Hosho manager Shun Kawamura.
