Kingfishers Slap 5-3 Loss on Reliables
Yokohama Kingfishers starter Kinzo Yoshimura pitched well against the Hosho Reliables at Nagoya Minami Stadium, leading his team to a win, 5-3. Hirotsugu Sasaki notched his 4th save in 8 chances. With the win, Yokohama upped its record to 44-32.

Yokohama used the timely hitting of Tokita Oishi to capture the win. The pinch hitter socked a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Kingfishers ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

Oishi told a Yokohama Times reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
