Kobe Rallies for 7-3 Victory
The Kobe Bulls knocked off the Fukuoka Falcons, 7-3, at Matsunoki Stadium. Chikato Kawano was a big reason Kobe won. The right fielder was 2 for 4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Kobe, with the win, sits at 25-56.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Kawano hit a sinker from Yuushuu Nakata for a grand slam home run. The Bulls, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"No one can call baseball boring," said Bulls manager Joe Davis. "Not after a game like that."
