Sato Helps Yokohama Cruise to 11-3 Win
Conditions were not ideal but Yokohama and Kyoto were able to put their game in the books.

The Yokohama Kingfishers used the hitting of shortstop Daijiro Sato to subdue the Kyoto Owls, 11-3. For the game, Sato went 2 for 2 with 2 doubles, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. Fumimaro Yamauchi picked up the win, lifting his record to 9-8 on the season. He struck out 5 and walked 1 in 8 innings, while yielding 3 runs.

Shigemitsu Fukui was 2-4 with 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for Yokohama. The 25-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Tadanori Miyata. It was his 36th RBI of the season.

Sato said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."

Yokohama is now 73-48, 9 games up in the Eastern League.
