GAME ID: 7136 - MONDAY, JULY 29TH , 1963 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Vesutan Bees (30-49) 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 3 11 1
Osaka Sailors (43-29) 0 0 0 1 1 0 2 2 X 6 10 0
Sailors Score 6-3 Win Against Vesutan
Bunmei Matsumura led Osaka to a win over Vesutan. The final score was 6-3. The Matsudo, Japan native collected 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Yataroh Niwa was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 1 of 1 save opportunities. The Sailors lead the Western League by 4½ games.

Had Fumiya Nakasone not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Nakasone hit a 2-run single. That made the score 4-2, in favor of the Sailors.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Matsumura. "And not try to do too much."
