Kites Victors, 6-2, at Kobe
Kitahachi Masuda helped his team muscle past the Kobe Bulls, 6-2. In the game, the Kinboshi second baseman went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Kinboshi, at 74-56, is 3½ games up in the Western League.

With two out in the top of the second, Ayahito Yamamoto put Kinboshi in front, 3-1, with a 2-run single. The Kites went on to win the ballgame.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Yamamoto told the Kinboshi Chronicle. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
