Bees Curb Falcons, 9-7
The Vesutan Bees trumped the Fukuoka Falcons, 9-7, at Fukuoka Stadium. Vesutan third baseman Kazukuni Morinaga was terrific. He was 3-3 with 3 singles and a walk. Tadaatsu Sunada, the winning pitcher, is now 5-6. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 7 runs on 5 hits, while fanning 1 and walking 4. Haruki Ogawa notched his 8th save of the season.

Vesutan used the timely hitting of Hidero Fujioka to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Bees on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It was a solid team effort," said Fujioka after the game.

The victory gives Vesutan a record of 33-32.
