Kobe Gets 8-6 Win
No one was more impactful than Chikato Kawano in the 8-6 Kobe win over Vesutan. Kawano went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Genichi Tsukamoto was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Tatsuki Goto. Masali Tabata sewed up the save, his 2nd.

Kawano contributed a big hit, a bases-clearing double, for Kobe in the top of the fifth. With his team trailing 5-3, Kawano took a sinker from Tatsuki Goto and stroked the double to right. His 2nd double of the season allowed the Bulls to leap in front, 6-5.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Kobe manager Joe Davis.

The defeat makes Vesutan 1-2.
