Sapporo starter Tsugunosuke Takeuchi pitched well against the Kyoto Owls at Sapporo Stadium. The left-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. The Bears, at 25-35, have now won 4 straight.

Sapporo took a 4-1 lead on Takeuchi's 2nd home run of the season. The solo home run, which he hit off Kuniaki Usui in the bottom of the eighth, propelled Sapporo to the win.

"Main thing is I want the team to win," Takeuchi told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win."
