Bulls Drop Close One Late
The Kobe Bulls could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Shiroku Terada into a win. Instead, the Kinboshi Kites prevailed, 4-3. Terada threw 7.2 innings of 5-hit ball. Reliever Kinya Kodama picked up the win. His record improves to 4-3. Masali Tabata, who finished 5th in the WL in saves with 11 last year, took the loss. Kinboshi is now 29-31. Kobe is 29-28.

Kinboshi got a jolt from Yutaka Kobayashi. The center fielder ripped a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it brought the house down.

"The crowd was boisterous tonight," said Kobayashi.
