Falcons Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Bees, 4-1
The Fukuoka Falcons beat the Vesutan Bees, 4-1. Fukuoka pitcher and Soka, Japan, native Norito Yamazaki led the way. The winner was Yamazaki. He threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Art Marx. The Falcons, at 41-36, have now won 4 straight.

Jotaro Murakami came through with a big-time hit for Fukuoka. The third baseman smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 3-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Norito throwing strikes, pounding the zone, that is exactly what you want to see," said Fukuoka manager Horace Jackson.
