Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Fukuoka Falcons and Vesutan Bees.

The Vesutan Bees could not turn a fine performance from shortstop Masao Shiotani into a win. Instead, the Fukuoka Falcons prevailed, 5-3. Shiotani went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Toshiyoshi Sakata, the winner, goes to 2-2. He allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 1 strikeout over 7 innings.

Jotaro Murakami went 2 for 4 with 2 singles for Fukuoka. The former first round draft pick had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Tetsuya Watanabe. It was his 27th RBI of the season.

Murakami attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."

The Falcons, at 26-14, lead by one game in their division.
