Kyoto Gets 7-0 Win
The Yokohama Kingfishers had to reckon with Kyoto Owls hurler Seishiro Kikuchi. Kikuchi, who is tied for 4th in the EL with a 1.01 WHIP, overwhelmed the opposition in the 7-0 Owls triumph. Kikuchi, the winner, moves to 8-4. He threw 5 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 4 walks. The 4th-place Owls have a record of 32-31.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Katsuki Taira? The Kyoto right fielder had a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Owls on top, 1-0. For the game, Taira had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"It's nice to get the results when you're feeling good and throwing the ball well," said Kikuchi after the game.
