Fukuoka Gets 4-2 Road Win
Fukuoka Falcons starter Sadakuno Ikeda found his groove in his team's 4-2 win over the Kobe Bulls. The winning pitcher was Ikeda, now 1-0. He tossed 6.1 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 3. The win gives Fukuoka a record of 7-2.

Fukuoka used the hitting of Toshifumi Shibuya to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Falcons on top, 4-0. For the game, Shibuya had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

After the game, Fukuoka manager Kamlyn Kadota applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.
