Marines Turn Back ORIX, 5-4
The Chiba Lotte Marines racked up a win at Ballpark of Nasu College, bumping off the ORIX Buffaloes, 5-4. Kiyoharu Marion, who started for Chiba Lotte, pitched effectively for his team. In 8 innings, Marion surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 4 runs. The Marines saw their win-loss record go to 14-20. At the same time, the Buffaloes fell to 15-19.

Had Jae-hoon Moon not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Moon hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Marines.

"We squandered some opportunities," said ORIX manager Steve Richards.
