Otani Excels, But Bees Win
The Vesutan Bees weathered a fine game by Fukuoka center fielder Akihito Otani to upend the Falcons, 10-9, at Fukuoka Stadium. Otani went 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. The loss drops Fukuoka to 4-4.

Vesutan took the lead, 10-7, on Tetsuya Watanabe's 4th home run of the season. The 3-run home run came off Fukuoka pitcher Rei Suga in the bottom of the seventh.

"It was sure nice to get the win but there's a lot of baseball left," Watanabe after the game.
