Nagasaki Upended by Kobe, 5-2
Kobe Bulls starter Kakuya Izumi turned in an exceptional performance against the Nagasaki Stars at Matsunoki Stadium, resulting in a Kobe win, 5-2. The Bulls sport a record of 42-23.

Kobe took a 5-1 lead on Tango Kurokawa's 11th home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which Kurokawa hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Nagasaki pitcher Koson Mitsunaga visibly frustrated.

"I like seeing our guys get a return on what they've put in," said Kobe manager Ikuhiko Murata.
