The Sapporo Bears defeated the Hosho Reliables, 6-3, at Sapporo Stadium. Sapporo was led by 32-year old second baseman Gunji Nakashima, who went 2 for 3 with 2 doubles and a walk. He drove in 3 runs. Masaru Ryu was the winner. He's now 5-12. The loser was 24-year old right-handed pitcher Naruto Noda. Sapporo, at 53-76, holds down 5th place in the Eastern League.

The game turned with one out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Nakashima hit a 2-run double off Naruto Noda. It propelled the Bears into the lead, 3-1.

Nakashima said his team "played with determination."
