The Fukuoka Falcons took on the Osaka Sailors at Fukuoka Stadium.

The Fukuoka Falcons racked up a win at Fukuoka Stadium, bumping off the Osaka Sailors, 3-1. Isaburo Muraoka, who started for Fukuoka, pitched effectively for his team. The second-place Falcons go to 36-25.

The Falcons got a big hit from center fielder Hirobumi Takahashi. Facing Osaka pitcher Tsuneteru Fujiwara in the bottom of the fifth, Takahashi pounded a run-scoring double to center. His 9th double of the season put the Falcons ahead, 2-0.

"Isaburo is tough to beat when he's hitting his spots," said Fukuoka manager Kamlyn Kadota.
