Bees Trip Falcons, 4-3, in Extra Innings
The inspired effort of Fukuoka left fielder Ayato Sugiura was not enough to prevent a loss, 4-3, to the Vesutan Bees. Sugiura hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. The 4th-place Bees go to 49-54.

Vesutan used the hitting of Hidetsugu Ikegami to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Bees on top, 4-3. For the game, Ikegami had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We had the eye of a tiger tonight," said winning manager Jack Fletchings.
