Kyoto Tumbles Again, Falls, 4-0, to Sapporo | The Sapporo Bears picked up a win at Sapporo Stadium, knocking off the Kyoto Owls, 4-0. On the mound for Sapporo was right-hander Mario de los Santos. He played a key role in the triumph. de los Santos, now 8-13, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 5, walking 5, and allowing no runs. The Owls, at 41-49, have lost 7 in a row.
Ryunosuke Onishi had a big run-scoring triple for the Bears in the bottom of the fifth inning.
