Owls Deal Rams 5-2 Loss
Toshimasa Kobayashi, who finished 2nd in the WL in saves with 24 in 1959, had a strong outing for the Kyoto Owls against the Rakisuta Rams at Rakisuta Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 5-2 win. Getting the save was Naizen Sano, his 6th. Kyoto is now 14-15, while Rakisuta is 14-15.

Bungo Arai had a big 2-run double for the Owls in the top of the fifth inning. With Kyoto leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Kisaku Arita, who is tied for 5th in the EL with a 2.63 ERA, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 10th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Owls ahead, 4-1.

"Toshimasa pounded the strike zone and made good pitches when he needed to," said Kyoto manager Takejiro Yonemura.
