Fujioka goes 3-for-5 in Vesutan Win
Hidero Fujioka left his imprint on the 7-4 Vesutan win against the Fukuoka Falcons. Fujioka, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1951 draft, went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The triumph puts Vesutan at 32-31 for the season.

Vesutan used a clutch at-bat from Tomeo Okinaka to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Bees ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"In this profession, you've got to put the good and the bad behind you quickly," Fukuoka skipper Horace Jackson said.
