5 Straight Wins for Rams
The Rakisuta Rams rode a solid performance from 29-year-old starting pitcher Sadato Hayakawa to a win, beating the Kyoto Owls, 8-2, at Rakisuta Stadium. The Rams, at 33-23, have now won 5 straight.

Kihachi Harada had a big 2-run double for the Rams in the bottom of the third inning. With Rakisuta leading 2-1 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from Seishiro Kikuchi, who is tied for 8th in the EL in strikeouts with 64, and swatted a double to left. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rams ahead, 4-1.

"The vibe's good," said Rakisuta manager Bob Lester. "We've got to keep it going."
