Owls Beat Reliables, 3-2
The Kyoto Owls, despite a fine performance by Hosho pitcher Kiyoharu Kawamoto, grabbed a 3-2 win at Nagoya Minami Stadium. Kawamoto allowed 1 run over 7.2 innings. Kyoto reliever Kenshin Kon snagged the win, upping his record to 6-8. Junya Yamagata shouldered the loss. The win makes Kyoto 79-58.

Kyoto needed the clutch hitting of Hiroshi Yamashita to notch the win. The catcher hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Owls on top, 3-1. For the game, Yamashita had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"I was a little disappointed," said Hosho manager Shun Kawamura. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
