Dynamics Get Defeated by Bears, 3-2
Tom Hodges, despite pitching well, was dismayed with the outcome: a hard-fought, 3-2 Denki Dynamics defeat at the hands of the Sapporo Bears at Sapporo Stadium. Earning his 15th save for Sapporo was Eisaku Yamaoka. The Bears raised their record to 44-64.

Sapporo took the lead, 3-2, on Nampo Fukuda's 5th home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off Denki pitcher Tom Hodges in the bottom of the seventh.

"Feels good to get the job done," Fukuda said after the game.
