Fukushima Helps Rams Defeat Bears, 7-2
Rakisuta third baseman Shouta Fukushima was a significant contributor in his team's 7-2 triumph over the Sapporo Bears. He went 4 for 4 with a home run, 3 singles, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Rams. The loss makes Sapporo 10-19.

Yugoro Ishihara came through with a big-time hit for Rakisuta. The right fielder smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We scored more than enough runs this time," said Rakisuta manager Kinzo Yoshimura. "Now watch. The next game we'll probably struggle to get a base hit."
