Owls Get 7-3 Win Versus Denki
The Kyoto Owls took on the Denki Dynamics at Kanda Stadium.

Kyoto Owls starter Norikazu Takai pitched well against the Denki Dynamics at Kanda Stadium, leading his team to a win, 7-3. Takai, who is tied for 3rd in the EL in complete games with 2, went the distance for Kyoto. He gave up 3 runs on 9 hits.

Kyoto used the hitting of Bungo Arai to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Owls on top, 3-0. For the game, Arai had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I put my work in and trusted the process," said Takai.

The Dynamics, now 10-17, continue their poor start.
