Bulls Down Sailors, 8-4
Bulls first baseman Shissho Inoue left his imprint on his team's 8-4 win over the Osaka Sailors. Inoue went 4 for 4 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 2 for Kobe in the contest. Tatsuharu Oto, the winner, goes to 9-4. He allowed 4 runs on 11 hits, with 1 walk and 8 strikeouts over 8.1 innings. With the win, Kobe upped its record to 33-32.

The Sailors had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Bulls going into the bottom of the second inning. That changed quickly when the 25-year old catcher Shunji Yamanaka came to the plate. Yamanaka hit a 2-run home run on a first pitch slider from Osaka hurler Takahiko Kurata. It was Yamanaka's 1st home run of the year.

"Solid performance from our side," said Bulls manager Joe Davis.
