Makoto Kato Goes Distance in Win
Ft. Worth rode a fine outing from starter Makoto Kato to victory over the Grafton Middies at Field of the Middies. The final score was 3-1. The 7th-place Cattlemen have won 4 straight games.

Kato, who has sometimes raised the ire of coaches and teammates with his famously lackadaisical work ethic, turned in a spirited performance. The hurler struck out 5 in 9 innings and gave up 1 earned run. Kato, who is tied for 5th in the SL in innings pitched with 97.2, raised his record to 8-5 on the year with 69 strikeouts.

"It's a mindset," said Kato. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
