The rain made it unbearable at times; nonetheless, the faithful who endured the elements enjoyed themselves.

Kyoto turned a fine outing from starter Takamitsu Fujiwara into a victory over the Denki Dynamics at Owls Park. The final score was 4-2. Kenshin Kon got the save, the 4th for him this season.

Iwata, Japan-born Shun Smith came through in the clutch. In the bottom of the seventh, with the bases loaded and the Owls trailing 1-0, he hit a 2-run single to right to put Kyoto on top.

"We'll just keep our nose to the grindstone," Fujiwara told the Kyoto Daily.

The hot start continues for the defending champion Owls. This was their 8th win in 11 games.
