Kingfishers Pull Out Late Win, 3-2
Getting an impressive start from Bill Sauerwein, Yokohama beat Rakisuta by the score of 3-2. The winning pitcher was Sauerwein, now 3-8. He tossed 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 3. Yoisuke Nishizawa earned save number 4 this season.

Masanori Takagi, who finished 3rd in the EL in batting average with .270 in 1970, had a direct impact on the outcome. Takagi contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the first inning to put Yokohama up, 2-0.

When asked about his performance, Takagi said, "It probably won't silence the critics."

After today's action, Yokohama sits at 24-38, while Rakisuta falls to 30-33.
