Conditions were not ideal but Vesutan and Osaka were able to put their game in the books.

The Vesutan Bees withstood an impressive performance by Osaka right fielder Ayumu Kaneshiro to defeat the Sailors, 7-5, at Fukuoka Stadium. Kaneshiro was 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times. Itaru Takayama, who went 7 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 5 runs on 11 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 4. His record now stands at 3-1.

Making an impact for the home team was Tomeo Okinaka. In the bottom of the seventh, the 26-year old center fielder had a run-scoring walk. That made the score 7-5, Bees.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Osaka manager Motoshige Aoki.

Vesutan has a record of 20-19, placing them 5th in the Western League.
