He struck out 3 and walked 1 in 7 innings, while yielding 5 runs. Kobe is 79-39 and Osaka, with the loss, 33-85.

Helping the Kobe cause was Jouta Hayashida. In the top of the seventh, the two-time Most Valuable Player Award winner had a run-scoring walk to make the score 4-2, Bulls.

"We took home the win," said Hayashida. "What's not to like?"
