Stars 1B Morita goes 3-for-5 in Win
Led by Kazu Morita, the Nagasaki Stars defeated the Kobe Bulls, 9-4. Morita was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4 for the Stars. The Bulls fall to 9-17 and continue their unimpressive start to the 1951 season.

Nagasaki shortstop Ukyo Tada contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the first. With two down, he hit a cutter to right field for a 2-run single. It was his 26th hit of the season and put the Stars ahead, 4-0.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Kobe manager Ineo Tsutsumi.
