Bulls Get Clutch Win Versus Vesutan
Well, that's how to end a game in style.

Kobe Bulls pitcher Tatsuharu Oto was in fine form, leading his team past the Vesutan Bees, 1-0. The winning pitcher was Oto, now 6-6. He tossed 9 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 4 and fanning 2.

The Bulls got a clutch hit from pinch hitter Ryuunosuke Okamoto. In the bottom of the ninth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Bulls.

"It's great when the crowd is energized," Okamoto said.

With the win, the Bulls sit at 34-30.
