Bees Get Clutch Win Versus Nagasaki
The Nagasaki Stars opened their 1974 season with a disappointing 4-3 loss to the Vesutan Bees at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium. Right Fielder Kyozo Omori was a big part of the win for Vesutan. He slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Kiyoshi Inouye picked up his 1st save of the season.

Omori had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a first pitch fastball from Tetsushi Kondo, he banged a 2-run home run to right-center, giving the Bees a 4-2 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Omori.

"That's what this team is about," said Omori, "picking each other up."
