Oto Stops Nagasaki Cold, 8-0
Kobe's Tatsuharu Oto brought his best stuff to Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium, shutting down and shutting out the Nagasaki Stars, 8-0. He racked up 4 strikeouts, surrendered 2 hits, and issued 1 walk on his way to the victory.

"We barely made him work at all," Nagasaki manager Okura Ichimura said later. "Kobe could probably pitch him again tomorrow if they wanted."

In 24 starts this season, Oto has fashioned a 16-5 record and a 2.15 ERA.
