| Nagao Befuddles Fukuoka in 3-0 Vesutan Win | The Fukuoka Falcons were almost helpless in their 3-0 loss to the Vesutan Bees and hurler Niou Nagao. Nagao kept the Falcons confused all game, spinning a 4-hit shutout.
"Tip your hat to Nagao," Fukuoka manager Kamlyn Kadota said in a postgame interview. "He kept us off balance all night."
The 37-year-old right-hander had 3 walks and 9 strikeouts in a strong performance.
"It just happened to be one of those games where even when I made mistakes, they either fouled them off or someone would make a fine defensive play," Nagao said. "It was just one of those games that things went my way."
