Bears 5-3 Winners Versus Denki
The Sapporo Bears topped the Denki Dynamics, 5-3, at Sapporo Stadium. Sapporo catcher Hiroiaki Nakazawa was a spark plug for the offense. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Naruki Shimada picked up the win, improving his season record to 8-9. He struck out 3 in 7 innings. The save was credited to Shinichi Kanehara, his 13th.

The game turned with two out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Nakazawa hit a 2-run home run off Takehiro Moriyama. It propelled the Bears into the lead, 3-1.

"Anytime you're seeing it well, it's a good feeling," Nakazawa told the Sapporo Citizen.

The Bears sit in last place in the Eastern League with a record of 31-51.
