Falcons Earn Clutch Win, 3-2
The Fukuoka Falcons had to overcome a fine effort from Kobe pitcher Kiyomitsu Wada to win, 3-2, at Fukuoka Stadium. Wada went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. The Falcons now have a record of 49-47 with the win over Kobe.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Fukuoka second baseman Niito Katagiri, facing Hironobu Takaoka, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Falcons the 3-2 win.

"Good hitters want to be the ones taking those big at-bats," said Katagiri.
