| Owls Score Late, Topple Rams, 2-0 | Kyoto starter Kento Okada kept the Rakisuta offense from doing much damage. The right-hander leaned on his sinker in leading the Owls to a 2-0 win. Okada, now 7-2, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 3, walking 2, and allowing no runs. With the win, the Owls have a record of 38-31.
Kyoto needed the clutch hitting of Shun Smith to seal the deal. The left fielder swatted a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Owls on top, 1-0. For the game, Smith had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.
Okada attributed the win to "concerted effort and focus." | |
