Dedicated fans weathered the storm to watch their beloved Stars beat the Sailors.

Behind the hitting of Binya Nishi, the Nagasaki Stars stopped the Osaka Sailors, 8-5. Nishi went 2-4 with 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Stars. Togai Ota picked up the win with 5 innings of work. He allowed 5 runs on 7 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 2. On the season, he is now 2-2.

With Nagasaki leading 6-5 in the bottom of the fifth, Nishi hit a 2-run single off Osaka hurler Kinnosuke Shimabukuro. It was the 26th hit of the season for Nishi and put his team ahead, 8-5.

"I know everybody in here is putting in the work," said Osaka manager Bill Sherrill. "It's just not paying off."

Now 5-21, the 1974 Sailors have sputtered in the early going.
