Owls Beat Denki, 3-2 | The Kyoto Owls topped the Denki Dynamics, 3-2, in Eastern League action at Owls Park. The standout performance belonged to Kyoto pitcher and Osaka, Japan, native Seishiro Kikuchi. Alexis Perales earned his 1st save in 3 chances. The 'W' lifts Kyoto's record to 60-62.
Had Tomonori Shimada not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Shimada hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Owls.
Shimada attributed the win to his team's "focus and intensity." | |
