Falcons Slip Past Bees, 5-4
It took 16 innings to settle this one.

The Fukuoka Falcons outlasted the Vesutan Bees, 5-4, in 16 innings. Ayato Sugiura provided some punch at the plate for Fukuoka. He hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Fukuoka currently is in second place in the Western League at 34-21.

Fukuoka used a timely hit from Itaru Nakamura to get the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 16th inning to put the Falcons ahead, 5-4. It might've been his only hit, but it did the trick.

"We'll put this win in the can," said Sugiura, "and go after the next one."
