Kites 9-3 Losers to Nagasaki
The Nagasaki Stars beat the Kinboshi Kites by a score of 9-3. Nagasaki shortstop Binya Nishi deserved the lion's share of the credit. Nishi was 4 for 4 with a home run, a double, 2 singles, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 runs for the Stars. With the victory, the Stars upped their record to 26-21.

Kin Nagasawa had a big grand slam home run for the Stars in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Nagasaki leading 5-2 and the bases loaded, he sized up a curveball from Ienari Takagi, who finished 2nd in the WL in saves with 5 in 1951, and punished it. The result was his 9th home run of the season, which put the Stars on top, 9-2.

"I still think this team can play even better," Nishi told the Nagasaki Citizen.
