Kinboshi Falters Again, Loses, 5-1, to Fukuoka
Fukuoka right-hander Minoru Yamamoto pitched his team to victory over the Kinboshi Kites at Fukuoka Stadium. The final score was 5-1. Yamamoto, who is tied for 7th in the WL in innings pitched with 50.0, went the distance for Fukuoka. He gave up 1 run on 7 hits. The slumping Kites have dropped 6 in a row.

The Falcons got a big at-bat from shortstop Go Nakayama. For the game, Nakayama was 1 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the third, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 3-run home run. His 8th home run of the season gave Fukuoka a 3-0 lead.

"We've hit a rough patch right now," said Kinboshi skipper Kaita Kurosawa.
