Falcons Score Late, Topple Kites, 5-2
The Kinboshi Kites got a sterling performance from pitcher Keiji Tamura, but the Fukuoka Falcons still prevailed, 5-2. Tamura threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The winner was Yuushuu Nakata in relief. His record improves to 2-1. Kinya Kodama took the loss. With the win, Fukuoka pushed its record to 36-32.

Fukuoka used the timely hitting of Yuigo Fukunaga to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Falcons on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We did a lot of things right," said Fukunaga.
