Sapporo Downs Denki, 9-6
The Sapporo Bears overcame a good performance by Denki third baseman Saikaku Tanaka to knock off Denki, 9-6, at Sapporo Stadium. Tanaka was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Tomochika Takada picked up the win, lifting his record to 4-8 on the season. He struck out 5 and walked 5 in 5.2 innings, while yielding 5 runs. By defeating Denki, the last-place Bears improved to 32-51.

Kenichi Hotta had a big run-scoring double for the Bears in the bottom of the first inning. With Sapporo leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Hisao Ibe, who finished 3rd in the EL in strikeouts with 162 in 1972, and swatted a double to center. It was his 14th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bears ahead, 2-0.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Hotta.
