The Yokohama Kingfishers and Sapporo Bears provided some drama for the home crowd.

Despite a fine performance by right fielder Thoki Kaneshige, the Yokohama Kingfishers lost to the Sapporo Bears, 8-7. Kaneshige went 4-4 with a triple, a double, 2 singles, and a walk. Kazou Nakamoto recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 3 for 5.

The Bears got a lift from right fielder Ukyo Ota, who in the bottom of the second stroked a 0-1 changeup to left for a 2-run single. It was his 81st hit of the season and put the Bears ahead, 4-2.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Yokohama manager Tommy McDonell.

The Bears, at 40-29, sit in first place in the Eastern League.
