Fading Sailors Lose 6th Straight
The Nagasaki Stars picked up a win at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium, knocking off the Osaka Sailors, 4-2. On the mound for Nagasaki was right-hander Akimasa Murakami. He played a key role in the triumph. Nagasaki reliever Tetsushi Kondo picked up the win, upping his record to 4-0. Haruki Ogawa was saddled with the loss. Osaka, at 5-20, has had a dismal start to the season.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Nagasaki. That's when Ryunosuke Kodama hit a 2-run home run off 37-year old right-handed pitcher Haruki Ogawa to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"We're in a funk and we need to shake ourselves out of it," said Osaka manager Bill Sherrill.
