 | Marines Sato Strikes out 17 Hawks Thursday, June 13th, 2013: Chiba Lotte Marines starting pitcher Kinnosuke Sato brought his best stuff to the game against the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks today at Ballpark of Nasu College, striking out 17 batters in his club's 8-1 victory. In a strong performance, the 19-year-old Sato gave up 2 hits in his 8.2 innings of work and issued no walks.
"I felt good out there," he commented after the game. "My fastball had a lot of life and my off-speed stuff was sharp. That combination was giving hitters fits and working well for me."
His record this year is 4-2 in 11 starts and Sato has a 1.91 ERA. |   |
