Nishimoto 4-for-5 to Fuel Bears Offense
The exploits of left fielder Subaru Nishimoto, who finished 3rd in the EL in runs with 98 in 1958, helped the Sapporo Bears defeat the Yokohama Kingfishers, 9-1. Nishimoto was 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4. The winner was Mario de los Santos, who threw 129 pitches over 9 innings. The right-hander was charged with 1 run on 6 hits. With the win, Sapporo goes to 49-62, while the Kingfishers fall to 65-45.

Sapporo second baseman Torai Yamamoto contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a curveball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 126th hit of the season and put the Bears ahead, 2-0.

Said losing manager Tommy McDonell: "At the end of the day, we've got to play better."
