Fukuoka turned a fine outing from starter Minoru Yamamoto into a victory over the Vesutan Bees at Fukuoka Stadium. The final score was 3-1. Yamamoto yielded 1 run over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 3. His record improves to 2-1. The Bees drop to 3-7, as their fitful start to the 1962 campaign continues.

Fukuoka right fielder Takane Nakanishi contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 16th hit of the season and put the Falcons ahead, 1-0.

"Once I cross that chalk line, I'm all business," said Yamamoto.
