Takeuchi Terrific in 2-1 Kyoto Triumph | Kanagawa Stadium featured a tense pitchers' duel.
Kyoto Owls starter Tsugunosuke Takeuchi found his groove in his team's 2-1 win over the Yokohama Kingfishers. The Owls, now 20-17, know that wins in June count the same as wins in September.
Takeuchi, the winner, is now 4-1, after putting the clamps on the Yokohama offense. In 9 innings of work, he gave up 1 run on 2 hits, while collecting 9 Ks.
"Bottom line," said Yokohama skipper Tommy McDonell, "we didn't play well enough to win." | |
