Bees Bridle Sailors, 3-1
Vesutan Bees starter Tatsuki Goto pitched a good game to help his team take down the Osaka Sailors, 3-1. Goto, who finished 4th in the WL in innings pitched with 207.1 in 1960, went the distance for Vesutan. He gave up 1 run on 5 hits. The victory gives Vesutan a record of 39-39.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Masao Shiotani? The Vesutan shortstop had a run-scoring double in the top of the second inning to put the Bees on top, 2-0. For the game, Shiotani had 2 doubles and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Goto called the win a testament to his team's "grit."
