Sailors Post 9-1 Win Over Fukuoka
The Osaka Sailors thumped the Fukuoka Falcons, 9-1, at Fukuoka Stadium. Kousei Ota was a big reason his team got the win. Ota went 2 for 5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. The 4th-place Sailors now have a record of 11-12.

Osaka used a well-timed hit by Fumiya Nakasone to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Sailors ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Nakasone said after the game.
