Yokohama Beats Hosho, 9-7
Wet weather did not postpone the Yokohama-Hosho ballgame.

The Yokohama Kingfishers spoiled a good performance by Hosho first baseman Senichi Kawakami, bumping off Hosho, 9-7, at Nagoya Minami Stadium. Kawakami went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Yokohama reliever Hirotsugu Sasaki picked up the win, raising his record to 7-5. Kinichi Ota was tagged with the loss.

Yoshiyasu Maeda drove in one run for Yokohama. The 34-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 7-7 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Kinichi Ota. It was his 23rd RBI of the season.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Maeda.

The win gives Yokohama a season record of 43-32.
