Ryotaro Yana had a good game, but he could not keep the Chiba Lotte Marines from falling, 10-8, to the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks at Ballpark of Aomori College. The Chiba Lotte designated hitter was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once in the loss. Motonobu Higashi got credit for the win, improving to 1-1. He allowed 6 runs on 12 hits in 6 innings. Fukuoka SoftBank has now won 4 in a row.

The Hawks got a big at-bat from center fielder Satomi Takasugi. For the game, Takasugi went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the second, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing double. His 4th double of the season gave Fukuoka SoftBank a 6-3 lead.

"We got the victory," said Takasugi. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
