Bulls Pocket 10-3 Win Against Fukuoka
Chikato Kawano was a vital contributor to the 10-3 Kobe victory over Fukuoka. The Bulls right fielder went 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. The Bulls now have a record of 31-63 with the win over Fukuoka.

In the top of the fourth, Kawano had one of his most important at-bats: a 2-run home run off Ennosuke Yamamoto that staked the Bulls to a 3-1 lead.

Kawano told a Kobe Observer reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
