Stars Handle Osaka, Snag 8-1 Win
Osaka had no answer for Nagasaki Stars hurler Shinsaku Shiraishi, who overwhelmed Sailors hitters as the Stars coasted to victory, 8-1. The win for the Stars raised their record to 54-48.

Sakan Inoue had a big 3-run home run for the Stars in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Nagasaki leading 3-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from Takahiko Kurata, who finished 3rd in the WL in wins with 12 in 1955, and punished it. The result was his 15th home run of the season, which put the Stars on top, 6-1.

"Things went our way," said Inoue.
