Kyoto Upended by Hosho, 7-3
The Hosho Reliables and Kyoto Owls completed their game despite the rain.

The Hosho Reliables defeated the Kyoto Owls, 7-3. Third Baseman Billy McCullough deserved a large share of the credit. McCullough went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Reliables. Takashi Masuda earned the win to go to 12-6. He allowed 3 runs on 8 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts in 8 innings of work.

A key moment came with two out in the top of the fifth. That's when McCullough hit a curveball from Takamitsu Fujiwara for a run-scoring single, putting Hosho up, 4-2.

"This win gets us that much closer to where we want to be," McCullough said in postgame remarks.

The Eastern League-leading Reliables are 75-46.
