Taira Kanazawa led Kinboshi to a win over Vesutan. The final score was 15-9. The center fielder had a huge performance. He whacked 3 extra-base hits, including 2 home runs and 1 double. The loss lowers the Vesutan record to 12-12.

With Kinboshi leading 7-5 in the top of the eighth, Kanazawa came up to bat against Vesutan pitcher Tadaatsu Sunada. Kanazawa hit a cutter to right-center for a 3-run home run. His 3rd home run of the season put the Kites on top, 10-5.
