The Fukuoka Falcons got a superb performance from pitcher Minoru Yamamoto, but the Osaka Sailors still won the game, 4-3. Yamamoto threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball. Osaka reliever Choei Teramoto picked up the win, upping his record to 2-6. Kijuro Fukushima absorbed the loss. The win has Osaka at 48-77.

Fred Anderson was the walk-off hero for Osaka. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Sailors pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It's great to get the crowd pumped up," Anderson said.
