Stars Winners, 4-3, at Kotei Stadium
The Nagasaki Stars and Osaka Sailors played an exciting game.

Nagasaki right-hander Tatsuo Sato pitched his team to victory over the Osaka Sailors at Kotei Stadium. The final score was 4-3. Sato yielded 1 run over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 2, and struck out 9. His record improves to 11-11.

Nagasaki used the clutch hitting of Yasunori Smith to snag the win. The shortstop drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Stars ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"Tatsuo kept them off-balance, threw a great game for us," said Stars manager Yusuke Kimura.

The Western League-leading Stars have a record of 69-46.
