Owls Get 9-4 Win Versus Yokohama
The Kyoto Owls picked up a win at Owls Park, downing the Yokohama Kingfishers, 9-4. On the mound for Kyoto was right-hander Takamitsu Fujiwara, who played a pivotal role in the win. Picking up the save was Kenshin Kon, his 16th. The Owls, at 45-36, have now won 4 straight.

Shun Smith had a big grand slam home run for the Owls in the bottom of the eighth inning. With Kyoto leading 5-2 and the bases loaded, he sized up a changeup from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Takeo Araki and punished it. The result was his 14th home run of the season, which put the Owls on top, 9-2.

"You win some, you lose some. I don't get too caught up in all that," said Smith.
