| Reliables Drop Owls, 6-4 | Hosho catcher Jokichi Kono contributed significantly to his team's 6-4 win over the Kyoto Owls. Kono, who is a four-time All-Star, went 2 for 2 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Reliables. The winning pitcher was Niou Nagao. He tossed 114 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits. Kyoto has now lost 4 in a row.
In the bottom of the eighth, Takiji Hayashi stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Owls were trailing 6-3, but had the bases loaded. That's when Kinichi Ota made a terrific pitch and Hayashi struck out. Gone was the dream of a Kyoto comeback.
