Multi-HR Day for Watts as Marines Overpower Buffaloes, 16-10
It was a fun time at Ballpark of Nasu College, where the ORIX Buffaloes and Chiba Lotte Marines tangled.

The Chiba Lotte Marines powered past the ORIX Buffaloes, 16-10, at Ballpark of Nasu College. Jeff Watts was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 5, to lead the charge. Matt Wolfe picked up the win, improving his season record to 1-0. He struck out 6 in 5 innings. Norihisa Hayasaka was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

Early in the game, left fielder Matt Boyd had a grand slam home run for Chiba Lotte. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Marines on top, 7-4.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Watts told the Chiba Lotte News.

Chiba Lotte, now 2-0, has played well in the early going.
