Kites Suffer 4-1 Home Defeat
The rain came, as predicted, but the Kobe Bulls and Kinboshi Kites were able to complete their ballgame.

Kobe turned a fine outing from starter Arata Komatsu into a victory over the Kinboshi Kites at Konohana Stadium. The final score was 4-1. Kobe, at 52-38, is 2 games up in the Western League.

Kobe used a clutch at-bat from Kouyuu Kira to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Bulls ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Arata was dictating to their hitters," said Kobe manager Ikuhiko Murata.
