Shiotani Leads Bees to Win
Vesutan and Kobe took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

Masao Shiotani impressed in the 8-4 Vesutan win over Kobe. Shiotani, who finished 5th in the WL in doubles with 32 in 1959, went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3. At 50-50, the Bees are currently 5th in the Western League.

Vesutan third baseman Kazukuni Morinaga contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the first. With two down, he hit a slider to left field for a 2-run single. It was his 92nd hit of the season and put the Bees ahead, 4-0.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Morinaga.
