Sailors Pick Up 5-4 Win Against Kobe
The Osaka Sailors beat the Kobe Bulls, 5-4. Osaka pitcher and Tondabayashi, Japan, native Natsuhiko Sugiura led the way. The Sailors win now puts them at 42-38.

Ayumu Kaneshiro had a big solo home run for the Sailors in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Osaka leading 4-2 and the bases empty, he got a changeup from Bill O'Grady, who is tied for 10th in the WL with a 5.4 K/9 rate, and swatted a home run to right. It was his 10th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Sailors ahead, 5-2.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Kaneshiro.
