Taketoshi Shimabukuro helped his team muscle past the Fukuoka Falcons, 11-2. In the game, the Kinboshi left fielder was 4-5 with a home run and 2 triples. He scored 2 runs and drove in 8. Toshio Yamamoto, the winner, is now 2-0. He struck out 3 and walked 3 over 7 innings, while allowing 1 run on 5 hits. The Kites now own a record of 35-36.

With Kinboshi leading 4-1 in the bottom of the seventh, Shimabukuro hit a fastball from Toshiyoshi Sakata for a grand slam home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Kites ahead, 8-1.

"Not much to say," Fukuoka manager Horace Jackson said, when asked afterward about the defeat.
