Bears Suffer 6-1 Loss to Kobe
The Kobe Bulls satisfied the home crowd at Matsunoki Stadium, treating them to a season-opening win, 6-1, over the Kyoto Bears. Starting Pitcher Noburo Kagawa was the standout performer for Kobe. Kagawa got the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed 9 hits and walked 4 over 8.2 innings. Kagawa allowed 1 run.

The Bulls benefited from an error in the bottom of the second inning. Kobe was leading 1-0 when Yukio Kubo hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Kobe in front, 3-0.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Kagawa.
