Kites Drop Bulls, 3-2
The Kinboshi Kites welcomed the Kobe Bulls to an afternoon game at Matsunoki Stadium.

Starting pitcher Kyuso Ikeda gave the Kinboshi Kites a rock-solid effort. The Kobe, Japan native helped his team defeat the Kobe Bulls, 3-2, at Matsunoki Stadium. Matoba Miwa closed the door for Kinboshi, picking up his 3rd save of the year.

Kinboshi used a well-timed hit by Kesanori Kikuchi to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Kites ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"It's a mindset," said Ikeda. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."

The Bulls fall to 7-10 and continue to sputter in the early going.
