Bulls Lose as Falcons Stage Late Rally
The Fukuoka Falcons topped the Kobe Bulls, 3-1, in Western League action at Fukuoka Stadium. The game was highlighted by the performance of Fukuoka pitcher Yuushuu Nakata. The 4th-place Falcons improved to 19-19.

Fukuoka took a 3-1 lead on Go Nakayama's 10th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Nakayama hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Kobe pitcher Kyouhei Sakata shaking his head.

"Every loss hurts," said Kobe manager Joe Davis. "But this was a tough one."
