Kites Win, Now 62-52
Kinboshi and Kobe put this game in the books despite some rain.

Led by Hideyuki Kitamura, the Kinboshi Kites downed the Kobe Bulls, 8-4. Kitamura was 2-2 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 runs for the Kites. Kinboshi is now 62-52, while Kobe is 56-51.

The Bulls had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Kites going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the former first round draft pick Hiroji Orido came to the plate. Orido hit a 2-run double on a 0-2 fastball from Kobe hurler Masahide Kanemoto. It was Orido's 11th double of the year.

"Just trying to keep things simple and helping the team win any way I can," Kitamura told a local reporter after the game.
