The game between Nagoya Hosho and Kobe is in the books, despite a little rain.

Kesaharu Takagi pitched well, but his team, the Kobe Bulls, still dropped a 4-3 decision to the Nagoya Hosho Reliables at Matsunoki Stadium. The winning pitcher was Tomoyuki Sugita. He tossed 137 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 3 runs on 13 hits.

Nagoya Hosho used a clutch hit from Bakin Naki to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Reliables ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We came out on the wrong end of this one," said Kobe skipper Ineo Tsutsumi.

Nagoya Hosho now sits at 43-52, while Kobe falls to 44-48.
