The Nagasaki Stars picked up a win, 5-2, over the Kobe Bulls at Matsunoki Stadium. Binya Nishi led the charge. The Numazu, Shizuoka native was 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Nagasaki. Nagasaki pitcher Takashi Masuda got the win, upping his record to 9-7. Kiyomitsu Wada got the loss. Kiyohiro Okazaki was credited with the save for Nagasaki, his 9th of the season.

Nishi contributed a big hit, a 2-run home run, for Nagasaki in the top of the third. With his team trailing 1-0, Nishi took a fastball from Kiyomitsu Wada and stroked the home run to left. His 19th home run of the season allowed the Stars to leap in front, 2-1.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Nishi.

Nagasaki currently is in second place in the Western League at 49-39.
