5-Hit Game for Yamanaka Thursday, June 12th, 2014 "It was almost like batting practice. I saw the ball very well and could just about hit it anywhere I wanted." That's what Fukuoka SoftBank first baseman Tsuginori Yamanaka said to BNN reporters after his fantastic 5-6 day against the Chiba Lotte Marines at Ballpark of Nasu College. "I got some good counts and used the whole field." The Hawks had a good day, too, and won the ballgame 21-2. Tsuginori Yamanaka singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit a two-run single in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off Kentaro Murata in the 7th and struck out in the 9th. Yamanaka's current batting average stands at .400 and he has chalked up 3 home runs and 12 RBIs. |
