Sailors Get Past Nagasaki for 5-4 Win
It was pandemonium at Kotei Stadium after an exciting walk-off win.

Osaka Sailors starter Takahiko Kurata found his groove in his team's 5-4 win over the Nagasaki Stars. The Sailors saw their record improve to 37-92.

Ryuji Tamura played the role of hero for Osaka. In the bottom of the ninth, he launched a 2-run home run off Tetsushi Kondo to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was the decisive blow.

"Takahiko did a heck of a job," said Osaka manager Bill Sherrill.
