Dominant Performance by Kato in Ithaca Win
The Ithaca Fighting Imps topped the Billings Polar Bears, 4-0, in USPL Double A action at Imps Park. The standout performance belonged to Ithaca pitcher and Yokohama, Japan, native Shigetoki Kato. The Fighting Imps sit in 6th place in the Premier AA with a record of 44-52.

Kato, who leaned on his sinker, allowed no runs on just 3 hits over 7.1 innings for the Fighting Imps. For the most part, Billings hitters were simply overmatched.

"This is a great group to be a part of, and it's a big win for us," Kato told the Ithaca Times.
