Slumping Sailors Lose 7th Straight
The rain did not keep Kobe and Osaka from finishing their game.

Kobe got a strong outing from Roku Yamakawa as the Bulls defeated the Osaka Sailors, 5-2, at Matsunoki Stadium. Yamakawa picked up the win for Kobe, going 8.1 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 6-1.

Kobe took a 5-2 lead on Oscar Abbott's 2nd home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which Abbott hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Osaka pitcher Haruki Ogawa visibly frustrated.

"Everyone's kind of edgy right now," said losing manager Bill Sherrill, "but nothing a couple of wins wouldn't cure."

The win for the Bulls lifted their record to 20-13.
