Kites Thrill Fans with 5-4 Win
The Kinboshi Kites walked off with a big win.

The Kinboshi Kites beat the Vesutan Bees by a score of 5-4. Kinboshi pinch hitter Mitsuyasu Takeno deserved the lion's share of the credit. Takeno was 1 for 1 with a triple. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Kites. Kannon Kato, now 5-3, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2 innings.

Sakan Hashizume was the walk-off hero for Kinboshi. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Kites right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"I felt good up there," said Takeno. "I saw the ball well."

Kinboshi is now 55-41, Vesutan 48-43.
