Ishii Leads Bees to Win
The Vesutan Bees defeated the Fukuoka Falcons, 9-5, at Fukuoka Stadium. Vesutan left fielder Susumu Ishii had a superb performance. He was 3 for 4 with a triple, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Art Marx earned the win for Vesutan. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 5 runs on 9 hits, while striking out 9. With the win, he raised his record to 2-6. The win puts Vesutan at 16-31.

In the bottom of the second, Ishii had one of his most important at-bats: a run-scoring single off Toshiyoshi Sakata that staked the Bees to a 2-1 lead.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Bees manager Jim Harper. "This one was nice to get."
