Owls Suffer 5-1 Home Loss | Seishiro Kikuchi, who is tied for 8th in the EL in quality starts with 15, had a strong outing for the Kyoto Owls against the Denki Dynamics at Kanda Stadium. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 5-1 win. The winner was Kikuchi. He threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Yoshitsune Nakamura. Kyoto now has a record of 56-53 with the win.
With Kyoto leading 2-0 in the top of the fourth, Kikuchi hit a fastball from Yoshitsune Nakamura for a bases-clearing double. It was his 2nd double of the season and put the Owls ahead, 5-0.
"The key at this level is throwing strike one," said Kikuchi. "Successful pitchers do it." | |
