Tuesday, July 29th , 1975
It was a quiet day for the Sapporo Bears at Nagoya Minami Stadium -- a little too quiet. Hosho Reliables starter Kiyoharu Kawamoto silenced the Bears, holding them to 3 hits and keeping them scoreless in a complete-game 5-0 win.

"It was frustrating against Kawamoto today," Sapporo manager Ritsuo Yoshida said.

The Hosho starting pitcher walked 1 and allowed 3 hits while fanning 6.

Kawamoto has made 18 starts, tossed 123 innings, struck out 88 batters and walked 41. His record is 9-5 with a 3.44 ERA and he has limited other teams to a .238 batting average.
