Kinboshi Beats Kobe, 7-6
No one was more impactful than Taketoshi Shimabukuro in the 7-6 Kinboshi win over Kobe. Shimabukuro, who is tied for 6th in the WL in runs scored with 70, was 2-4 with a home run, a triple, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Toshinori Nagase was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 4 of 5 save opportunities. Today's win puts Kinboshi at 50-41, while Kobe falls to 30-61.

Shimabukuro had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a 0-1 fastball from Yasuhiko Hidaka, he banged a 2-run home run to right-center, giving the Kites a 5-4 lead. It was the 13th home run of the year for Shimabukuro.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Kobe manager Joe Davis. "But we decided not to take it."
