The Yokohama Kingfishers had to overcome a fine effort from Kyoto pitcher Ukita Tomita to win, 5-4, at Owls Park. Tomita went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. The 5th-place Kingfishers are now 33-48, the Owls 45-37.

Toyoji Iwamoto came through with a big-time hit for Yokohama. The right fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 5-4. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"It was a good effort all around," said Iwamoto.
