Osaka Scrapes Out 2-1 Win
Osaka Sailors pitcher Takahiko Kurata was in fine form, leading his team past the Kobe Bulls, 2-1. Takatsugu Miyamoto, now 8-6, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. Osaka is now 43-39.

Washi Okazaki provided some late-game heroics for Osaka. In the bottom of the eighth inning, he hit a run-scoring single. It came on a first pitch slider from Tatsuharu Oto and propelled Osaka to a 2-1 lead.

Okazaki told reporters after the game: "All's well that ends well."
