Kosuke Fukudome got on base every which way in his first exhibition game for the Chicago Cubs. The Japanese newcomer was plunked on the first pitch he saw in the first inning, walked in his next turn and then hit an RBI single to help the Cubs beat the San Francisco Giants 12-6 Thursday in an exhibition opener.
