Fans who congregated at Fukuoka Stadium were treated to extra-inning drama.

Nagasaki first baseman Botan Wada played a vital role in his team's 11-7 conquest of Fukuoka. He went 4-5 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 4 runs and driving in 2 for Nagasaki. The second-place Stars have won 4 consecutive games.

Sakan Inoue came through with a big-time hit for Nagasaki. The third baseman smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the 12th inning to give his team the lead, 11-7. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"If you're not prepared, it's not pressure you feel, it's fear," mused Nagasaki manager Okura Ichimura.
