Bears Drop Another One, 9-8
The rain came, as predicted, but the Kyoto Owls and Sapporo Bears were able to complete their ballgame.

The Kyoto Owls downed the Sapporo Bears, 9-8. The hitting star was right fielder Mitsutsugu Fujimoto. Fujimoto was 3-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Owls. Alexis Perales earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2.2 innings. His record is now 1-0.

Kyoto used a well-timed hit by Tensui Kato to capture the win. The third baseman socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the first inning to put the Owls ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Fujimoto said.

The current losing streak for Sapporo has reached 4 games.
