| Falcons Net 2-0 Win Over Bulls | Fukuoka Falcons starter Tadaatsu Miki found his groove in his team's 2-0 win over the Kobe Bulls. Fukuoka has a record of 46-52, placing them 5th in the Western League.
Fukuoka used the hitting of Kazuaki Mukai to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Falcons on top, 1-0. For the game, Mukai had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Mukai told the Fukuoka Times. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
