Falcons Dealt 5-2 Loss
Osaka Sailors starter Tetsushou Kobayashi found his groove in his team's 5-2 win over the Fukuoka Falcons. Kobayashi, now 4-15, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 6, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. Their 34-89 record puts the Sailors last in the Western League.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Satoshi Hino? The Osaka left fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Sailors on top, 3-0. For the game, Hino had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Really good pitchers have that ability to raise their game when they need to," said Osaka manager Bill Sherrill.
