Stars Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Falcons, 5-3
The Nagasaki Stars beat the Fukuoka Falcons, 5-3, at Nagasaki Prefecture Stadium. Nagasaki right fielder Kazu Morita had an outstanding performance. He went 2 for 3 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The winner was Nagasaki reliever Shiro Sawada, now 3-4. The loser was Yoriyuki Nagashima. Nagasaki goes to 66-51. The win puts them 7½ games up in their division.

Morita had a game-changing double in the bottom of the eighth. On a 0-1 slider from Michiyuki Oki, he banged a 2-run double to center, giving the Stars a 5-3 lead. It was the 9th double of the year for Morita.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Morita said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."
