The Kyoto Owls powered past the Rakisuta Rams, 9-1, at Rakisuta Stadium. Yutaka Yoshida provided some of the pop. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Seishiro Kikuchi picked up the win, lifting his record to 4-3 on the season. He struck out 6 and walked 4 in 7 innings, while yielding 1 run. The Owls bumped their record to 21-18 with this latest triumph.

In the top of the first, Yoshida had a 3-run home run for Kyoto. It was his 4th home run of the season and put the Owls on top, 3-0.

Said losing manager Bob Lester: "Give the Owls credit. They took advantage of our mistakes."
