Bees Spill Kites, 2-1
Keiji Tamura could take little solace in pitching a good game. The fact is his Kinboshi Kites lost, dropping a 2-1 decision to the Vesutan Bees at Konohana Stadium. The save was credited to Kiyoshi Inouye, his 11th. The Bees now have a record of 29-38 with the win over Kinboshi.

The Kites had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Bees going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the three-time All-Star Kyozo Omori came to the plate. Omori hit a run-scoring double on a 0-1 changeup from Kinboshi hurler Keiji Tamura. It was Omori's 9th double of the year.

"We won," said Omori. "But they made us earn it."
