Yokohama Beats Kyoto, Goes to 18-9
The Yokohama Kingfishers and Kyoto Owls completed their game despite the inclement weather.

Kyoto shortstop Bungo Arai was sensational. He went 3-4 with 2 home runs and a double. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Yokohama beat the Owls, 7-4. Fumimaro Yamauchi, the winner, is now 5-0. He struck out 7 and walked 1 over 7 innings, while allowing 3 runs on 8 hits.

Daijiro Sato, who is tied for 9th in the EL in total bases with 56, chipped in a run-scoring ground out for Yokohama in the bottom of the third. For the game, the shortstop had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Sato.

Yokohama is now 18-9, 2½ games up in the Eastern League.
