Bees Handed 8-2 Loss by Kinboshi
A 3-RBI performance from Taketoshi Shimabukuro, who is tied for 10th in the WL in hits with 101, helped the Kinboshi Kites beat the Vesutan Bees, 8-2. Ryusuke Maeda, who went 5 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 1 run on 5 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 0. His record now stands at 6-8. With the win, Kinboshi upped its record to 48-35.

Kinboshi won the game in part because of Yutaka Kobayashi. The center fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Kites ahead, 2-0. For the game, Kobayashi had 1 double and 1 home run in 3 at-bats.

"What a lackluster performance," lamented losing manager Jim Harper.
