Vesutan Wins, Ishii goes 4-for-5
The Vesutan Bees defeated the Kinboshi Kites, 12-6, in part because of left fielder Susumu Ishii. Ishii went 4 for 5 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles, while scoring 4 runs and driving in 3 for the Bees. The winner was Tetsuya Watanabe, who threw 106 pitches over 6.2 innings. The right-hander was charged with 6 runs on 7 hits. Vesutan has 3 straight wins, Kinboshi 3 straight losses.

With Vesutan leading 2-1 in the bottom of the second, Ishii hit a 2-run single off Kinboshi hurler Kannon Kato. It was the 45th hit of the season for Ishii and put his team ahead, 4-1.

"If it's down the middle," said Ishii, "you might as well hit it."
