Thean Blisters ORIX Saturday, April 3rd, 2021 Fukuoka SoftBank left fielder Qian Thean could do no wrong in today's 17-5 win over the Buffaloes as he collected 5 hits. "In every one of his at-bats things were in his favor... he got hitter's counts," the skipper of the Buffaloes said to the press corps after the game. Thean agreed. "The key is getting ahead. Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit. You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Qian Thean hit a two-run home run off Sun Li in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, struck out in the 7th, hit a two-run single in the 8th and walked in a run in the 9th. This season Thean is batting .307 with 23 hits, 4 home runs, 16 RBIs, 7 walks, .388 OBP and has scored 14 runs. He has played in 19 games. |
