Naoto Yoshinaga, who leads the WL in innings pitched with 121.0, had a strong outing for the Nagasaki Stars against the Vesutan Bees at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 3-2 win. Nagasaki pitcher Kiyohiro Okazaki got the win, upping his record to 3-2. Hirokatsu Funakoshi got the loss. Nagasaki's record now stands at 37-31, placing them second in the Western League.

Nagasaki got a game-changing hit from Binya Nishi. The shortstop blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"The fans went nuts at the end," Nishi said.
