Conditions were not ideal but Kobe and Vesutan were able to put their game in the books.

The Kobe Bulls defeated the Vesutan Bees, 9-5, at Fukuoka Stadium. Kaito Tsuji produced 1 single and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 1. Tatsuharu Oto got the win, improving to 3-5. He pitched 7.2 innings, giving up 6 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 7.

In the top of the first inning, third baseman Shinsaku Tashiro had a 2-run home run for Kobe. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Bulls on top, 2-0.

"I'm proud of the boys for pulling through," said Bulls manager Joe Davis. "The wins don't come easy for this team, but everyone's got an extra jump in their step after a game like this."

Kobe is now 20-45.
