Kites Notch 7-3 Win Versus Sailors
Not everyone stuck through the 24-minute rain delay, but those who did went home happy.

The Kinboshi Kites picked up a win at Konohana Stadium, downing the Osaka Sailors, 7-3. On the mound for Kinboshi was right-hander Ryusuke Maeda, who played a pivotal role in the win. Maeda picked up the win for Kinboshi, going 7 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 11-10.

In the bottom of the first, Kinboshi right fielder Mitsuyasu Takeno had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Takeno stroked a run-scoring single to left. It made the score 1-0, Kinboshi. For the game, he went 2 for 4 with a double.

"It was a good team win. Everybody threw something in," Takeno told the Kinboshi Chronicle.

With the win, the Kites sit at 54-49.
