Arai Helps Owls Defeat Kingfishers, 9-2
Bungo Arai was a major contributor to the 9-2 Kyoto win over Yokohama. The Owls shortstop hit 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Isoroku Furuta, who finished 5th in the EL in wins with 13 last year, was the winner. He's now 8-9. The loser was Minao Akagi. The Owls improved to 57-52.

Arai contributed a big hit, a 2-run home run, for Kyoto in the bottom of the first. With his team trailing 1-0, Arai took a fastball from Minao Akagi and stroked the home run to right. His 23rd home run of the season allowed the Owls to leap in front, 2-1.

"I really like what we did out there today," Arai said after the game.
