Tokunaga Helps Kites Beat Bees, 8-3
The Kinboshi Kites picked up a win, 8-3, over the Vesutan Bees at Vesutan Stadium. Fusao Tokunaga led the charge. The Tsukuba, Ibaraki native was 3-5 with a home run and a triple. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3 for Kinboshi. Vesutan falls to 12-14.

Kinboshi used a clutch at-bat from Fumisato Muramoto to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Kites ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Hitting, winning. It's just contagious," said Muramoto.
