Buffaloes Get Road Win, 4-2
The ORIX Buffaloes got a stellar performance from pitcher Shuichiro Otsuka, who handcuffed the Fukuoka SoftBank offense en route to a 4-2 win at Ballpark of Aomori College. Otsuka, now 1-0, was the winner. In 5.2 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing 2 earned runs. Takuzo Okuyama got the save, the 2nd for him this season.

Hyo-chin Suk, who is rated as the 19th best prospect by BNN, aided the ORIX cause with a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth. For the game, the right fielder was 1 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

"We put together a nice win," Suk said.

ORIX, now 3-2, has gotten their season off to a good start.
