Victory Takes Sailors to 9-9
The Osaka Sailors took on the Fukuoka Falcons at Kotei Stadium.

The Osaka Sailors defeated the Fukuoka Falcons, 7-4, in part because of second baseman Okyoito Nishimura. Nishimura went 2-4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Sailors. The winner was Yukiharu Goto, who threw 118 pitches over 8 innings. The right-hander was charged with 4 runs on 7 hits. Earning his 1st save of the year was Takatsugu Miyamoto.

Nishimura had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a full count fastball from Yuushuu Nakata, he banged a 3-run home run to right-center, giving the Sailors a 7-4 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Nishimura.

Osaka manager Motoshige Aoki was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.

Osaka has a record of 9-9.
