Kaku Excels, But Marines Win
The Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles got a sterling performance from designated hitter Hideo Kaku, but the Marines still prevailed, 20-12. Kaku was named the player of the game in a losing cause. He was 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. Chiba Lotte is now 19-11, 3½ games up in the Pacific Division.

Chris McMichael contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With the bases loaded, he hit a grand slam. It was one at-bat that propelled Chiba Lotte to the win.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Chiba Lotte manager Mark Connor.
