Stars Rally to Win
The rain did not keep Nagasaki and Kinboshi from finishing their game.

Nagasaki parlayed a decent outing from starter Naoto Yoshinaga into a solid win over the Kinboshi Kites. The final score was 5-4. With the win, the Stars improved to 68-49.

Nagasaki needed the clutch hitting of Binya Nishi to notch the win. The shortstop hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Stars on top, 5-4. For the game, Nishi had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Naoto kept his poise and got the job done," said Nagasaki manager Eddie Roseman. "He was outstanding."
