In a low-scoring tilt between the Kobe Bulls and the Nagasaki Stars, Roku Yamakawa, who finished 5th in the WL in strikeouts with 215 in 1970, was the difference-maker. The Kobe right-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. Yamakawa got the win, improving to 11-7. He gave up 6 hits and walked 2 over 8.2 innings. He allowed 1 run. The first-place Bulls sport a record of 72-35.

The Bulls benefited from a costly error in the top of the seventh. With Masu Osaki at bat and Kobe leading 1-0, the Nagasaki miscue allowed Kobe to plate 1 and take the lead, 2-0.

"Roku pitched like a champ," said Kobe manager Shojiro Tasaka.
