Owls Post 7-6 Win
Kyoto third baseman Tensui Kato made his presence felt in the 7-6 Owls triumph over the Denki Dynamics. Kato went 1-4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The winning pitcher was Ukita Tomita. He's now 5-4. He went 7.2 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits for the Owls. The second-place Owls have a record of 32-22.

Kyoto took a 7-3 lead on Kato's 15th home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which he hit off Hisao Ibe in the top of the sixth, propelled Kyoto to the win.

"I don't care about style points," Kato said. "I only care about winning."
