| Tight Tilt Goes to Kites, 3-2 | Roku Yamakawa could take little solace in pitching a good game. The fact is his Kobe Bulls lost, dropping a 3-2 decision to the Kinboshi Kites at Matsunoki Stadium. The winning pitcher was Kyuso Ikeda. He tossed 129 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits. Kinboshi is now 70-70. Kobe is 97-43.
Akichika Goto, who led the EL in stolen bases with 56 in 1972, had a direct impact on the outcome. Goto contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the sixth inning to put Kinboshi up, 3-2.
"Winning the game is always the first objective," Goto said.
