Falcons 4-1 Losers to Stars
Nagasaki pitcher Akimasa Murakami did his part in helping his team beat the Fukuoka Falcons, 4-1. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. The Stars raised their record to 37-42.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Binya Nishi? The Nagasaki first baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Stars on top, 2-0. For the game, Nishi had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"To get where we want to as a team, we all have to do things out of our comfort zone," Nishi told the Nagasaki Herald.
