Kites Handed 7-4 Loss
Nagasaki parlayed a decent outing from starter Naoto Yoshinaga into a solid win over the Kinboshi Kites. The final score was 7-4. Yoshinaga, now 9-6, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 7, walking 3, and allowing 4 runs. The loss makes Kinboshi 44-30.

Nagasaki took a 5-4 lead in the bottom of the seventh inning, when Shou Okuda hit a clutch 3-run home run to bring Stars fans to their feet.

"Naoto's focus was outstanding. The way he handled every moment -- when there was a little trouble, he didn't lose his tempo or his rhythm," said Nagasaki manager Eddie Roseman.
