The Osaka Sailors got a good effort from starter Genpaku Matsumoto in defeating the Kinboshi Kites at Kotei Stadium. The final score was 5-1. The victory puts Osaka at 49-78.

Kinboshi could barely put a dent in Matsumoto. The left-hander tossed 98 pitches over 9 innings for the Sailors, allowing only 3 hits.

"I just made my pitches," said Matsumoto, "and the ball kept missing the bat."
