Bees Over Stars, 9-8
Binya Nishi did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Nagasaki Stars from being beaten, 9-8, to the Vesutan Bees at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium. Nishi went 3-5 with a home run, 2 singles, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Shohei Yamazaki nailed down his 1st save. The 5th-place Bees hiked their record to 54-57.

Vesutan used a timely hit from Marihito Hirano to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Bees ahead, 9-8. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a difference-maker.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Hirano.
