Big Day by Suk Ignites Buffaloes Win
ORIX beat Saitama Seibu at Sea Hawks Stadium, escaping with a 13-12 win. The win in large part was due to right fielder Hyo-chin Suk, who earned player of the game honors. He went 4-5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice. Hayami Iwamoto picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-0. Justin Dopp was tagged with the loss. Kouichi Hayashi picked up the save for ORIX, his 3rd of the year.

In a game filled with surprises, perhaps none was as big as Suk's contribution. The ORIX right fielder is a relative newcomer. With no one out in the bottom of the eighth, when the Buffaloes had runners on 1st and 2nd, Suk delivered a crucial 3-run home run.

Saitama Seibu manager Jon Crowe said he was disappointed with the loss. "Whenever you score that many runs, you expect to win the game."

ORIX is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 4th in 11 games.
