Fukunaga Slugs Falcons to 8-5 Win
The rain made it unbearable at times; nonetheless, the faithful who endured the elements enjoyed themselves.

The Fukuoka Falcons beat the Vesutan Bees, 8-5, at Fukuoka Stadium. The win was due in part to left fielder Yuigo Fukunaga, who belted 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Toshiyoshi Sakata earned the win for Fukuoka. He lasted 5.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 4-6. Ennosuke Yamamoto notched his 1st save in 1 chances.

In the bottom of the first, Fukunaga had a 2-run home run for Fukuoka. It was his 8th home run of the season and put the Falcons on top, 2-0.

"I feel like a little kid every time I put the uniform on," said Fukunaga.

After today's action, Fukuoka sits at 28-31, while Vesutan falls to 21-39.
