| Late Rally by Stars Secures 3-2 Win | In a low-scoring affair between the Nagasaki Stars and the Fukuoka Falcons, pitcher Akimasa Murakami was the difference between victory and defeat. The Nagasaki right-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 3-2 Stars win. Yoshiharu Fujitate, 3-2, earned the win in relief. He allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. With the win, Nagasaki upped its record to 51-42.
Ikku Kawase was the walk-off hero for Nagasaki. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Stars center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.
"Akimasa had good stuff. When he did get into a compromising count, he made the most of it," said Nagasaki manager Okura Ichimura.
