Bitters Go 10 Innings to Beat Auckland, 5-3
Kichibei Kouki was instrumental in his team's 5-3 triumph over the Auckland Aces BC. The shortstop went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Melbourne Bitters. Katsuhiko Hashimoto notched his 24th save in 30 chances. The current losing streak for Auckland has reached 7 games.

Melbourne used a clutch hit from Kenneth King to get the win. The second baseman drilled a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Bitters ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

King said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."
