The Kyoto Owls took on the Sapporo Bears at Owls Park.

Kyoto Owls pitcher Isoroku Furuta was in top form, leading his team past the Sapporo Bears, 6-1. Furuta, now 11-9, was the winner. In 8.1 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 5, walking 4, and allowing 1 run.

Takiji Hayashi, who finished 5th in the EL in runs with 81 last year, had a timely hit in the bottom of the sixth inning. With one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, the Kyoto left fielder hit a run-scoring single. That put the Owls in front, 6-1.

"We have a lot of confidence in Isoroku," said Kyoto manager Takejiro Yonemura.

The win puts the Owls at 66-61, while the Bears drop to 72-53.
