Bees Edge Past Kites, 3-2
Vesutan and Kinboshi played a hard-fought contest.

Kinboshi got a valiant performance from pitcher Ryusuke Maeda, but it wasn't enough to beat the Vesutan Bees. Vesutan won the game, 3-2. Maeda threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Hirokatsu Funakoshi came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 1.1 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. Haruki Ogawa earned the save for Vesutan, his 2nd of the year.

Hidero Fujioka came through with a big-time hit for Vesutan. The second baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Fujioka. "And not try to do too much."

The loss drops the Kites to 10-5.
