Vesutan Bees (54-55) 3 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 X 8 12 1
Bees Win at Home, 8-5
The 8-5 Vesutan win over Nagasaki was due largely to Kyozo Omori. The Bees left fielder went 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Earning his 17th save of the year was Kiyoshi Inouye. Vesutan has won 5 straight, while Nagasaki has lost 7 in a row.

The Bees got an important contribution from second baseman Kichiro Okano, who in the bottom of the second hit a screwball to right for a 2-run home run. It was his 8th home run of the season and put the Bees ahead, 5-1.

"I'm a big believer in luck," said Omori. "And the harder we work, the more we have of it."
