Tight Tilt Goes to Kingfishers, 2-1
The Yokohama Kingfishers claimed a close win over the Hosho Reliables, due in large part to Fumimaro Yamauchi. The Yokohama right-hander pitched a great game to secure the 2-1 win. Yokohama now owns a record of 34-26.

Kimiyasu Aoki had a big solo home run for the Kingfishers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Yokohama leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a sinker from Shinki Kimura, who finished 4th in the EL in ERA with 2.96 in 1956, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Kingfishers on top, 2-0.

Yokohama manager Tommy McDonell praised his team's "businesslike approach."
