| Sailors Grind Out 1-0 Win | Matsunoki Stadium featured a tense pitchers' duel.
Kobe wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Yoshimatsu Yamamura, falling to the Osaka Sailors, 1-0. Yamamura threw 9.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. At 2-1, the Sailors have played well so far.
Satoshi Hino, who finished 2nd in the WL in extra base hits with 51 in 1964, had a direct impact on the outcome. Hino contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the second inning to put Osaka up, 1-0.
"We squandered some opportunities," said Kobe manager Ikuhiko Murata. | |
