| Fighters Fall Short at Chiba Lotte | The Chiba Lotte Marines got a strong performance from pitcher Kevin Hostetter, who stymied the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham offense en route to a 3-2 win at Ballpark of Nasu College. The winner was Chuji Osaki in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Steve Girard took the loss. Adam Petti sewed up the save, his 2nd.
Chiba Lotte took a 3-2 lead on Hideiichi Murakami's 8th home run of the season. The solo home run came off Hokkaido Nippon-Ham pitcher Steve Girard in the bottom of the eighth.
"We'll grab a cold one tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Murakami said.
