Sailors Deal Nagasaki 6-3 Defeat
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Osaka fans at Kotei Stadium.

The Osaka Sailors picked up a win at Kotei Stadium, knocking off the Nagasaki Stars, 6-3. On the mound for Osaka was right-hander Kinnosuke Shimabukuro. He played a key role in the triumph. Shimabukuro, who finished 5th in the WL in strikeouts with 191 in 1971, went the distance for Osaka. He gave up 3 runs on 7 hits.

Osaka took a 4-1 lead on Ryuji Tamura's 5th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Tamura hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Nagasaki pitcher Koson Mitsunaga visibly frustrated.

"I like the vibe in the clubhouse after a win," said Tamura. "It sure beats the alternative."

The Sailors raised their record to 21-37.
