Esaki Finds Groove in 2-1 Rakisuta Triumph
Rakisuta turned a good performance from starting pitcher Juro Esaki into a 2-1 triumph over the Sapporo Bears at Rakisuta Stadium. Rakisuta is 64-69 and Sapporo, with the loss, 55-78.

Esaki was effective against the Bears, seldom allowing a hard-hit ball. The right-hander limited Sapporo to just 1 run on 2 hits over 9 innings.

Esaki attributed the triumph to "a good team effort."
