Rams Rack Up 2-0 Win Versus Kyoto
Rakisuta got a strong outing from Juro Esaki as the Rams defeated the Kyoto Owls, 2-0, at Rakisuta Stadium. Rakisuta is now 34-37, while Kyoto is 39-32.

The action was intense with one out in the top of the seventh inning. With a runner on 1st and Kyoto trailing 1-0, Juro Esaki had to face the seven-time All-Star Akihito Otani, who was hoping to turn the game around. It was not to be, as Otani lined out.
