Kingfishers Popped by Owls, 6-4 | Kyoto and Yokohama put this game in the books despite some rain.
The Kyoto Owls overcame a good performance by Yokohama catcher Kazuaki Mukai to knock off Yokohama, 6-4, at Owls Park. Mukai went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Kyoto pitcher Toshimasa Kobayashi got the win. He's now 1-1. Hirotsugu Sasaki was tagged with the loss. Chotaro Sasaki got the save, the 1st for him this season.
In the bottom of the seventh, Bungo Arai delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the Kyoto shortstop hit a 2-run single, putting the Owls in front, 6-4.
"We'll pocket this win," said Arai, "and then go after another."
The Owls now have a mark of 25-26. | |
