Sailors Upend Stars, 6-0 | The skies opened up and the rain fell at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium.
The Osaka Sailors stopped the Nagasaki Stars, 6-0, at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium. The Sailors got a big game from Satoshi Hino, who was 3-4 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The Western League-leading Sailors are 37-27.
Kikuichi Shirai was 1 for 5 with a double for Osaka. The nine-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the top of the sixth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Takashi Masuda. It was his 35th RBI of the season.
"We're trying to go out there and win games," Hino told the Osaka Times, "and we played pretty well tonight." | |
