Million Stars Down Blacks, 6-4
Led by 23-year-old Gouta Kawakami, the Cheongju Million Stars downed the Gyeongju Blacks, 6-4. Kawakami went 3 for 5 with 3 singles and 2 walks. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Cheongju. Cheongju's winning streak has reached 4 games.

Cheongju used the timely hitting of Kenjyu Ueno to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 15th inning to put the Million Stars on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"A lot to like, just frustrated that we came up short," said Gyeongju manager Shinya Azuhata.
