Bears Topple Owls, 10-6, as Ishikawa Shines
The Sapporo Bears cut down the Kyoto Owls by the score of 10-6, with the largest share of the credit going to shortstop Michihiko Ishikawa. Ishikawa was 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs for the Bears. After today's action, Sapporo sits at 42-29; Kyoto slips to 34-37.

Sapporo used a clutch hit from Tadami Ishii to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Bears ahead, 8-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a doozy.

"I like the vibe in the clubhouse after a win," said Ishii. "It sure beats the alternative."
