Nagasaki beat Osaka in a rain-soaked ballgame.

The Nagasaki Stars defeated the Osaka Sailors, 9-0, in Western League action at Kotei Stadium. Nagasaki pitcher Akimasa Murakami had a standout performance. The Stars are now 46-34, while the Sailors fall to 39-37.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Yoshitomo Nakano? The Nagasaki left fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Stars on top, 1-0. For the game, Nakano had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"It's no secret that good defense follows around people who throw strikes," said Nagasaki manager Eddie Roseman.
