Sailors Fall, 9-8, to Fukuoka
Fukuoka and Osaka took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The 9-8 Fukuoka win over Osaka was due largely to Tsuruo Akamine. The Falcons right fielder went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Shinpo Yamasaki recorded his 12th save for Fukuoka.

Akamine had an important at-bat with runners on 1st and 2nd in the bottom of the sixth, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Falcons went on to win.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Akamine said.

The second-place Falcons go to 37-25.
