Sailors Take Nail-Biter Over Kites
Osaka right-hander Tsuneteru Fujiwara helped his team edge Kinboshi by the score of 3-2. Fujiwara kept the opposing lineup in check. Kuniaki Usui came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. His record now stands at 6-4. With the win, the Sailors are 19-49.

In the bottom of the tenth, Tomohito Takahashi had a chance to deal the knockout blow. And he did, punching a run-scoring hit-by-pitch to center off Kinboshi pitcher Satoshi Yamashita.

"We refused to lose," said winning manager Bill Sherrill.
