Reliables Take Tight Tilt
The Hosho Reliables picked up a win at Rakisuta Stadium, downing the Rakisuta Rams, 4-3. On the mound for Hosho was right-hander Kinichi Ota, who played a pivotal role in the win. After today's action, Hosho sits at 38-29; Rakisuta slips to 35-33.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Kikaku Hamasaki? The Hosho left fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Reliables on top, 1-0. For the game, Hamasaki had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We took home the win," said Hamasaki. "What's not to like?"
