Bears Drop Owls, 6-4, with Late Score
Sapporo right fielder Koji Osawa played a vital role in his team's 6-4 triumph over Kyoto. He was 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs for Sapporo. The winner in relief was Washi Shibata. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 5-5. Sapporo has 3 straight wins, Kyoto 3 straight losses.

Osawa had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 1-2 fastball from Morihiro Matsumura, he banged a solo home run to left-center, giving the Bears a 5-4 lead. It was the 9th home run of the year for Osawa.

"This is not a one-man show," said Osawa. "A lot of the guys stepped up."
