Falcons Suffer One-Run Loss at Vesutan
The rain could not keep the home crowd from enjoying a good ballgame.

The Vesutan Bees handed the Fukuoka Falcons a loss at Fukuoka Stadium. The final score was 5-4. Kazukuni Morinaga was one of the major contributors for Vesutan. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Kouichi Hiramatsu, credited with the win in relief, is now 2-0. He allowed no runs on 2 hits in 4.2 innings.

With Vesutan leading 4-2 in the bottom of the eighth, Morinaga hit a run-scoring single off Fukuoka hurler Yuushuu Nakata. It was the 48th hit of the season for Morinaga and put his team ahead, 5-2.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Vesutan manager Jim Harper.

Vesutan has now won 4 games in a row.
