The 3-hit performance of Shougo Iwai, who is tied for 3rd in the WL with a 1.014 OPS, helped the Vesutan Bees beat the Kobe Bulls, 3-2. Haruki Ogawa wrapped it up, recording his 10th save. The win puts the Bees at 35-34, while the Bulls drop to 23-54.

In the first inning, Iwai had a run-scoring double for Vesutan. It was his 18th double of the season and put the Bees on top, 1-0.

"That's baseball," said Kobe manager Joe Davis. "You're not always going to be hitting on all cylinders."
