Kobe beat Vesutan in a rain-soaked ballgame.

Starting pitcher Roku Yamakawa fulfilled his part of the bargain, helping the Kobe Bulls stymie the Vesutan Bees, 4-2. Shinya Kawakami was credited with the save for Kobe, his 12th of the season.

Kouyuu Kira, who is tied for 9th in the WL in doubles with 6, chipped in a 2-run home run for Kobe in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"Winning is always a team effort," Yamakawa said after the game.

Kobe leads the Western League by 2½ games.
