Arai slugs 2 home runs to Light Owls Fuse
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Kyoto fans at Owls Park.

Led by Bungo Arai, the Kyoto Owls downed the Hosho Reliables, 14-4. Arai hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 5 for the Owls. Kyoto is now 13-14, Hosho 20-8.

The Reliables had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Owls going into the bottom of the second inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old right-handed pitcher Kuniaki Usui came to the plate. Usui hit a 3-run home run on a 1-0 fastball from Hosho hurler Sadakazu Minami. It was Usui's 1st home run of the year.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Usui.
