Owls Rebuff Reliables, 5-3
Bungo Arai, who is tied for 7th in the EL with a .936 OPS, had a 3-RBI night to help the Kyoto Owls down the Hosho Reliables, 5-3. Seishiro Kikuchi closed it out for Kyoto, earning his 1st save. Losses have been few and far between for the Reliables, who are now 11-4.

The Owls benefited from a costly error in the top of the third. With Tensui Kato at bat and Kyoto leading 2-1, the Hosho miscue allowed Kyoto to plate 1 and take the lead, 3-1.

"I think it speaks for itself, I think we came out and we played our kind of baseball," said Arai.
