The ORIX Buffaloes topped the Saitama Seibu Lions, 2-1, in Pacific League action at Sea Hawks Stadium. The player of the game was ORIX pitcher and Owensboro, Kentucky native Steve Stevens. Travis Lapp got the save, the 5th for him this season. The Buffaloes, now 20-8, know that wins in June count the same as wins in September.

The Buffaloes got a big at-bat from left fielder Hyung-gook Ann. For the game, Ann was 1-2 with a home run. In the bottom of the second, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 2nd home run of the season gave ORIX a 2-1 lead.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Ann.
