Yamamoto Stars as Kites Top Falcons, 13-6
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Kinboshi fans at Konohana Stadium.

Kinboshi shortstop Ayahito Yamamoto had a 5-RBI game, which helped his team beat the Fukuoka Falcons, 13-6. Kinboshi has rattled off 4 straight wins.

With Kinboshi leading 9-4 in the bottom of the fifth, Yamamoto batted against Fukuoka pitcher Kiyoshi Murakami. Yamamoto hit a curveball to left for a grand slam home run. His 9th home run of the season put the Kites on top, 13-4.

"It's a good day to be a fan after a win like that," Yamamoto told the Kinboshi Chronicle.
