Reliables Win Slugfest, 13-10
The Hosho Reliables beat the Yokohama Kingfishers by a score of 13-10. Hosho center fielder Kikaku Hamasaki deserved the lion's share of the credit. Hamasaki went 2-6 with a home run. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for the Reliables. Kinichi Ota closed the game out for Hosho, earning his 5th save. Hosho now has a record of 43-34 with the win.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the seventh, with the game tied, Sunao Morioka was at the plate when Hosho scored 2 on an error. The miscue enabled the Reliables to go in front, 8-6.

"The more wins we pile up," said Hamasaki, "the more I like our chances."
