Yokohama Kingfishers (49-28) 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 2 3 7 11 0
Sapporo Bears (40-38) 3 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 5 12 1
10 Straight Wins for Kingfishers
Despite a fine performance by first baseman Subaru Nishimoto, the Sapporo Bears lost to the Yokohama Kingfishers, 7-5. Nishimoto was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. The wins continue to add up for Yokohama. The latest makes it 10 in a row.

The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Daijiro Sato came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Sapporo pitcher Senichi Soga, he hit a 1-0 fastball for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Yokohama on top, 7-5.

"The positive vibes are all around the clubhouse," said Kingfishers manager Tommy McDonell. "Once you see a player having a good at-bat, that's really contagious."
