Taira Holds Owls Scoreless
In an outstanding outing, Rakisuta Rams starter Shigeyoshi Taira tamed the Kyoto Owls with a 5-hit shutout at Owls Park. The Rakisuta hurler went the distance, finishing with 2 strikeouts and 3 walks in the 4-0 win.

"He had a lot of first-pitch strikes and kept us off balance with a lot of off-speed stuff," according to Kyoto manager Tomoya Nagao. "We just didn't get too many balls squared up today."

For this year, Taira has chalked up 3 wins and 6 losses in 13 starts with 29 strikeouts in 86 innings and a 3.87 ERA.
