Starting pitcher Tomochika Takada pitched well enough to help the Sapporo Bears beat the Kyoto Owls, 4-3. Takada yielded 3 runs over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 4, and struck out 6. His record improves to 9-1. Senichi Soga finished to wrap up his 10th save.

Sapporo got a lift in the bottom of the fifth from second baseman Torai Yamamoto, who hit a knuckle curve to right-center for a 2-run home run. His 4th home run of the season put the Bears up, 4-2.

"I was just taking it batter by batter, just enjoying the moment," said Takada.

The Bears, at 36-23, sit in first place in the Eastern League.
