Nojima Stars as Kites Top Stars, 7-3
The Kinboshi Kites beat the Nagasaki Stars by a score of 7-3. Kinboshi catcher Kiyohito Nojima deserved the lion's share of the credit. Nojima hit 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice for the Kites. The first-place Kites bumped their record to 20-14.

Kinboshi took a 7-3 lead on Nojima's 3rd home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Kiyohiro Okazaki in the bottom of the eighth, propelled Kinboshi to the win.

Said losing manager Eddie Roseman: "We just didn't get it done tonight."
